4-H community service opportunities

You get your 4-H portfolio back and it says, “You need to get involved in more 4-H community service.” Well, here is your chance. Consider volunteering for one of these roles to help the Jr. Livestock program. If interested in learning more about any of these roles or signing up, call the 4-H office at 399-8202.

 

• Sheep Pens: On Saturday morning, prior to the fair, adult and youth volunteers are needed to set up the sheep pens.
• Jr. Livestock Photo Station: Each year we provide our youth with an attractive backdrop for them to take pictures of their project animals. Your club could volunteer to set up the backdrop, make sure it stays looking nice throughout the fair, and then take in down at the conclusion of the fair. Backdrop panels and a banner provided; club would provide all other decorative items.
• Livestock Arena: We want our show ring to look nice for all of the livestock shows. Your club could volunteer to decorate the arena and make sure it stays looking nice for the shows, then removing the items after the last show (beef).
• Washing Panels: Our show ring panels get really dirty after being stored all year long. You and/or your club could volunteer to wash the panels on the day of weigh-in.
•  Wiping Down Bleachers: Every day during the fair, we want our exhibitors to have a nice place to watch the show. Volunteers are needed early each morning to pick up trash in the bleacher area and wipe down the bleachers.
