4-H Top 4 for the week of June 29, 2020

Good morning everyone.  Hope you had a great weekend and are looking forward to a fantastic Holiday weekend.  Just a few things to kick us off.

-If you have not downloaded the 4-H App please do so.  It is a great way to get instant reminders, you can add events to your electronic calendars, and register for programs with the click of a button.  So far everyone who has downloaded it and tried it is pleased with how user friendly it is and how much time it saves you from having to come to the office.  To download our app, just go to the app store on your phone and download 4-H Now!  When you open that app search for Robeson County 4-H tap on it and you will be linked to us.  The download and app are free.

-4-H Congress is for our 14-18 year old 4-H members.  There is still room available.  The cost this year is $25 for the virtual experience.  However thanks to our United Way funds we can offset that so it is $15 for members and $10 for County Council Officers.  Registration can be found on the app, under programs, or by clicking this link:  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/robeson-county-4-h-congress-registration-tickets-109689074976.  For Questions please contact Shea Ann DeJarnette, 4-H Extension Agent.

-We are excited to announce a brand new program.  This is a virtual 4-H Jr. County Retreat.  The event will be held virtually over Zoom and be led by our amazing teen 4-H County Council Officers.  Our youth will have the chance to work on a Citizenship project, take part in interactive Trivia Challenges, and try to work their way out of a virtual Escape Room.  The event will take place July 31, from 3-5 pm.  This event is free and open to all Robeson County 4-H members enrolled in 4-H Online.  To register please click this link:  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/robeson-county-4-h-congress-registration-tickets-109689074976.  For questions please contact Shea Ann DeJarnette, 4-H Extension Agent.

-We still have spots available in our 4-H Summer Fun events.  Arts and Crafts Day Camp, Biotech, and Cloverbud day camp.  Please check the programs tab on the app and scroll to find the opportunity you would like to register your child for.  You can also register from our Summer Fun blog post found here:  http://robeson4-h.blogspot.com/2020/06/4-h-summer-fun-virtual-style.html

That is all we have for this week.  Our office is closed on Friday, July 3 in honor of Independence Day.  We hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend and we are looking forward to seeing you online soon.

Thanks,

Wendy, Christy, and Shea Ann
