March - April  2016
Pender County 4-H
County Activity Day/County Council Meeting 
Rescheduled Presentations 

This year we will do this a little differently than the last. We will hear all the presentations at the next County Council Meeting on April 25 starting at 6:00 at the Burgaw Extension Office. Please come prepared to present your topic. Folks who are doing outdoor cookery will also be presenting that night as well. In addition there will be a a short county council meeting to get us started. Please bring a long sleeve shirt of any kind to the meeting to donate to the migrant workers of Pender County. This can count as a Community Service Project. 

*NOTE: The County Council date was moved to Monday instead of Tuesday on the original calendar.  

Volunteer Club Leader Training 
April 12, 2016 at 11:45

This training is for all volunteers new and old and we will be discussing summer programs and teen involvement. Remember you must attend 2 of the 3 training sessions that are offered this year. Lunch will be provided at this training. Please let Jessica know if you are unable to attend. 

Fundraising for Pender County 4-H 

Pender County 4-H will have a booth set up at the Old River Farms Spring Fest, April 23, and at the 2016 Burgaw Springfest May 7. We will be making 4-H Centennial   Snickerpoodles (doggie treats), and Clover Crisp Sugar Cookies to sell at both of these events. This is an opportunity to learn a new recipe and enjoy time with other 4-Hers. Please contact Ms. Jessica to help with this project. County Council Officers will be at both events and help with preparation. 

Participating in community events helps the public understand what 4-H is and allows for other youth to get involved. The reason we do these types of fundraisers is to help send youth to overnight summer camp, keep day camp at a low cost, help teens attend district and state level events and lastly to continue to provide monthly programs and events by the county 4-H program.
