Good morning!  Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend and if you had spring break hope it was great, and if you are on spring break now...what a perfect day to sleep in!  Here are some upcoming programs available for registration in the app.

-Adult volunteers, did you miss the Volunteer Leaders Conference this year?  Are you looking for an event to get all your training hours in for the year and maybe meet other volunteers from across this state and get ideas, have some fun, and maybe even come back energized for 4-H and life in general?  Think about registering for the 4-H Volunteer Spring Workshop which will take place Saturday, May 21 in Raliegh at the Jane S. McKimmon Center on NCSU Campus.  We will provide transportation to and from the event which will be from 8:30am to 3 pm.  The event will include lunch and a plethora of interesting workshops.  The cost is $35 dollars but thanks to our United Way funds you will only pay $18.  To register for this event you must be active in 4-H Online and register by using this link https://www.eventbrite.com/e/nc-volunteer-leaders-spring-training-tickets-261810431047 which can also be found on our app under programs.  Registration Deadline is April 21.  For more information please click on this link:  https://robeson4-h.blogspot.com/2022/02/nc-4-h-vla-spring-training.html If you have questions please feel free to contact Shea Ann DeJarnette at sadejarn@ncsu.edu.

-4-H Animal Science is currently open for registration thru May 9.  At this time we are waiting on word from the state Veterinarian's Office concerning our chicken project.  Please note that if you have already, or are planning to register for poultry, we will offer a full refund if we have to cancel the project due to High Path Avian Influenza (HPAI).  We will keep everyone abreast of that conversation as it happens.  At this time the state plans to make a decision sometime in May about the project.  We would encourage you to go ahead and register for the projects because our deadline will be prior to the making of that decision.  You can register for the project on our app under programs or by clicking this link:  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2022-robeson-county-4-h-animal-science-tickets-302928024877  For more information about this program please contact Shea Ann DeJarnette at sadejarn@ncsu.edu.


Just a quick note....if you qualified for District Activity Day Ms. Wendy will be calling to set up your practice time or you could be proactive and set up a time with her in advance.....her email to schedule those one on one appointments is wrmaynor@ncsu.edu.  

Hope you have a great week and if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
