AIRE

 

AIRE looks like we are about to talk about astrological signs.  Actually in the world of 4-H stars AIRE stands for Application, Interview, Resume, and now instead of essay Electronic Video.  This is a state 4-H program that is the precursor to going on trips such as National 4-H Congress, National 4-H Conference, and International Leadership Conference.  Youth competitively compete utilizing all four components of the process and those with the highest scores in the end win the opportunity to attend one of these great opportunities.  To take part in the program and vie for a trip youth must be between 14-18 years of age and be a 4-H member.

  This year we are proud to say that 4-H Member Maggie Underwood, County Council reporter and member of the Dirty Rascals JMG 4-H Club and Dirty Dozen Shooting Sports 4-H Club submitted her application, a resume, completed her electronic video and just this week went through the interview process.  We hope to hear how she did during our virtual 4-H Congress Experience this year.

  If you are interested in being part of this program please contact Shea Ann DeJarnette, 4-H Extension Agent.  To learn more about this opportunity please visit the NC 4-H Program AIRE website page.
