· Training youth leaders in clubs to take over and run meetings. Help them with an introduction to public speaking, parly pro, mixers, talking and engaging new club members, and working to involve everyone in club activites.
· 4-H websites: Attempt to have more resources online. Kids tend to be more internet savvy- perhaps we could sponsor a workshop to teach them how to design and run an efficient 4-H website.
· “Bringing the 4-H back into 4-H” Where did all of the good, old-fashioned fun go? Let’s focus less on the ribbons and prizes and more on working together and learning to have fun with projects.
· Having Collegiate 4-H members come speak at club meetings (we are completely willing to do so)
· Helping to set up and run livestock shows
· Work together with 4-H clubs on service projects. We have many ideas for service ideas, and can always use more people; we know many of the clubs have the same problem. Volunteering together is a great opportunity to integrate Collegiate 4-H into Monroe County 4-H!
· Mini 4-H Day Camp run by Collegiate 4-H (we think this is a great idea!!)
· Offer some technology training for 4-H clubs and officers in Power Point.
· Volunteer Opportunity with Junior Leaders- Operation Military Kids
· Volunteer Opportunity- Spaghetti Dinner (run a craft table for children)
· IU Bass Fishing Club coming to Sports Fishing 4-H Club to talk- I will look into that!!
Bloomington Moose Club- Funding Opportunity???We will be discussing these opportunities at future meetings, but I would encourage everyone to pick out their favorite ideas and elaborate!
See you all soon,
Ellen Weinzapfel
Indiana University Collegiate 4-H Vice President
