Leader Training coming in August and September

All 4-H Leaders will need to attend special training on the new 4-H Policies, Club Finances, and Conflict Management for WSU 4-H in Pend Oreille County.   Creating the best possible learning opportunities for 4-H Youth is not easy.   Protecting yourself and youth is a task that requires continual training.   Look for local dates and times for you to actively participate in required training for all continuing 4-H Volunteers.   New policies and procedures will come into effect October 1st.  This September we will be working with all 4-H Clubs to reenroll youth and members.   Again, these changes are for the protection of youth and volunteers committed to the delivery of the WSU 4-H Youth Development Program in Pend Oreille County.   In person training around the County and zoom meetings will be available to accommodate your busy schedules.   Call me with any questions or concerns.   Mike Jensen:  509-447-2401  email:  mike.jensen@wsu.edu

Continued opportunities for 4-H Policy Training

Please join us for one of the required trainings being offered in September!   Our WSU 4-H Policies have changed.   In order to assure we are all on the same page as we enter the new 4-H Program Year, we ask that all continuing 4-H Leaders attend one of the trainings being offered this month.   4-H Clubs will not be allowed to meet, will not have liability coverage and cannot use the 4-H Name and clover without  2017 certified 4-H volunteer  leaders.   Please come and join in the fun and fellowship of training.  Questions:  please contact Mike Jensen at: 509-447-2401 or email at: mike.jensen@wsu.edu
