4-H Extravaganza Workshop
May 4, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Are you confused about how to start your 4-H exhibit? Do you have a question? Would you like guidance? The 4-H Super Extravaganza Workshop is the place to go for help, guidance and answers. Through the workshops listed below, 4-Hers will gain insight as to what they need to do to complete an exhibit. In some cases, you may even walk away with a completed project. All workshops will be held in the 4-H Exhibit Hall starting at 6 pm. Some of the workshops may be over before 7:30 pm.
Please RSVP by calling (317) 462-1113 with the name(s) of the workshop you will attend by May 2 so that we have adequate supplies prepared. We will have some supplies available: double stick tape, paper, Cricut paper cutter, construction paper, rubber cement, poster boards, plastic sleeves, etc. Below are descriptions and times for each workshop:
Microwave Foods
With today’s fast-paced society, the microwave has become an important appliance to prepare food for families. Learn how to make fudge and bar cookies in your microwave. Participants will measure ingredients, mix, and bake in the microwave. Ingredients will be provided. Participants will take a sample of fudge and cookies home.
Photography
Bring pictures that you have taken and we will help you lay out your poster board for your exhibit. Our photography superintendent and older 4-Hers will help you learn a quality photo from one that needs a little improvement. Bring your camera and take inside and outside pictures.
Achievement Portfolio
Get started now tracking your 4-H experiences, because, trust me, it will not be any fun trying to re-create this information as a senior in high school. All too many 4-Hers miss out on the yearly $21,000 in scholarships only available to Hancock County 4-Hers due to not keeping records. The Achievement Portfolio project will help you track the skills you develop, the service learning projects you completed and the leadership roles you held during your 4-H career.
Posters
Learn poster basics and how to make your poster pop! We can help you design your exhibit for the fair, come and learn some of the tricks to making a great poster. You will go home with a project started for County Fair! We will have laptops, internet and paper available for research, if needed.
