Your counselors are Lorain County 4-H teens who can’t wait to meet you and are busy making plans right now. You must arrange your own transportation to the boat dock in Marblehead and return. Camp fee of $175.00 includes lodging, meals, boat fare, and a whole lot of fun! This camp is open to youth in 3rd-7th grade during the 2012-2013 school year.

Public Speaking Opportunities and Contests in 4-H
Public Speaking Opportunities and Contests in 4-H
Who, me? Get up and give a speech in front of people? That may be the reaction of many 4-H members when public speaking contests and opportunities are mentioned. Yet, when you ask a 4-H alumnus to name the most valuable things they gained from 4-H, many will emphasize the public speaking skills they developed. Public speaking, whether done in front of an informal 4-H club meeting or done at a county competition will help 4-H members gain skills that many will use later in life in careers and in involvement in their community. Entry deadline for Pledge & Creed contest is May 1st and entry deadline for Demonstration Contest or Health & Safety Talks & Skits is June 3.
