3. Council Officers Needed
We are still looking for Council Officers for the 2014-15 program year. These volunteers are of vital importance to our program! Please remember that whether you have been in 4-H for one year or twenty; we are looking for a range of volunteers that can work together professionally to make the development and decision making process in our county smooth and effective. I would like to encourage both new and experienced volunteers to become involved in our council as it will benefit our program by providing a diverse set of experiences and viewpoints.
**If you might be interested in volunteering to be an officer but are unsure what each position does take a look at the description of each office which I have attached below.
If you have any questions about the election process or would like to volunteer
please call the office at 831-637-5346 ext 13 or email me at bnjohns@ucdavis.edu.
4. Missing Poster
Thank you to everyone that volunteered for, or attended our centennial celebration last Thursday May 8th. It was great to see 4-H represent so many of our attendees! I has a wonderful time seeing the rabbits, goats, educational displays, and presentations that showcase the dedication of our members.
On a more serious note- There was, unfortunately, a poster belonging to Bill Coates that went missing during the celebration. The poster was created by Bills daughter and is therefore we would like to see it returned as soon as possible. The poster has a blue background and includes news articles about Bills work with Walnuts.
If you have any information on its whereabouts please call the office or Bill and Nancy.
