A Mindful Moment

Mindfulness is a practice of bringing attention to our “moment to moment” experiences. Take this moment to learn tips and tricks to help you stay calm and focused!

Awards Opportunities

Participants will learn about the vast opportunities for district and state 4-H awards that all 4-H’ers can work towards throughout their 4-H career.

Best Practice & Helpful Hints for 4-H Presentation Videos

This session is designed to give 4-H Volunteers information that will be helpful as you are working with your 4-H’ers on recording their 4-H Presentation Videos. We will discuss the 2020 Presentation Competition, share tips to help with composing the videos, helpful ways to record and save the videos

Improv Public Speaking

In this session, participants will engage in a few improv activities that will sharpen and build public speaking skills. This will not only be fun for 4-H volunteers, but also useful as they help train 4-H’ers for confidence in presentations, quick and creative thinking skills and help prepare youth if they are interesting in running for a 4-H officer position.
