4-H Top 4 for February 9, 2026

Happy Monday!

Hope everyone enjoyed thier weekend and the Super Bowl?

Just want to take a moment and say we have had our first two club meetings of the year.  Young Leaders had their organizational meeting in January, and the Art Hub 4-H Club was finally able to take the field trip to the NC Museum of Art this weekend after have to postpone a couple of times due to weather.  Congrats to our club leaders for hitting the road running in 2026.  We also know that the Dirty Rascals JMG 4-H Club has their schedule completed and will start meeting in March.  If you are interested in any of these or other club opportunities please contact Jade McNeill at jade_mcneill@ncsu.edu.

1.  Project Record Books and Portfolios are due to our office by the end of the day.  We added an extra week in due to snow, so we hope to have your record books in today.

2.  Volunteer Launch Pad  

We are excited to announce a virtual learning opportunity for our volunteers.  the 4-H Volunteer Launch Pad will be a quarterly virtual training opportunity for volunteers in Bladen, Brunswick, Columbus, Cumberland, Hoke, and Robeson Counties.  We have determined topics based on the needs expressed by our volunteers in these counties who responded to a survey we sent out in December.  To learn more about the trainings please click this link or check it out on the app under programs.

3.  Project Record Book Judging

  On February 16th we will be holding our annual project record book judging.  This is a chance for you to learn about project records if you haven't seen one before and  learn first hand what it takes for a good one.  You can judge one or more if you like.   If you will be coming please register on Eventbrite so we can make sure to be set up for all our judges.  To register just click this link and answer the questions.  You can also register on the app. 

4.  Re-enrollment

Volunteers and members need to be reenrolled in 4-H Online.  If you have not reenrolled by the end of the month you will no longer get emails from us, so please make sure to take a moment and renroll on 4-H Online.

That is all for today.  Hope you have a great Valentines and Galentine's day and we can't wait to see you at one of our 4-H events.
