Camping Opportunity for Teens!
Teens can spend a fun filled weekend, November 18-20, at 4-H Camp Ohio! Open to 8th-12th grade 4-H members, Carving New Ideas is a camping opportunity for older youth, concentrating on the principles of critical thinking and program facilitation. Campers will take a trip Around the World in their time together. Sessions, speakers and even meals will challenge our understanding of how diverse our Clubs, Communities, Countries, and World really are. The cost for the weekend is only $60.

4-H Clubs with Horses
If your club has horse project members (not Horseless Horse), you are required to send a club advisor to the 4-H Horse Advisory Committee meetings. These usually take place the first Monday of each month with the exception of November (it will be held October 31, due to the recognition program date). Meetings take place at the fairgrounds and begin at 7pm.
The many shows, clinics, and activities for horse members cannot take place without your clubs support and help. Please make an effort to participate.
