NEWSLETTER PARK COUNTY 4-H

2015AUGUST

GREETINGS FROM KELSEY

County Fair has come and gone. I saw so many of you showcasing your hard work from the year. No matter where you placed, congratulations on working so hard and being part of 4-H. Being part of 4-H puts you ahead of the crowd!!! Good luck to all of you that are competing at State Fair. I will be around if anyone needs anything. School starts this month, so I wish you all well with the beginning of school! Don't forget that you can fill out portfolios that are due by the 15th of September. Many prizes are given based on portfolios and this is an important step to summing up your 4-H year. For parents, our portfolios teach record keeping skills and reflections skills that confirm our 4-Hers learning experiences. Take care and have a great August!

Portfolio Due Date

Portfolios will be due this year on September 15th

by 4pm to either the Cody or Powell Extension

Offices. They will be judged and cash prizes will be

awarded for the top individual categories. Awards will be

handed out on Achievement Night.

PORTFOLIO INFORMATION

There is a new portfolio format if you would like to check it out at http://www.uwyo.edu/4-h/

portfolio/index.html

This is a type and save format. Due to some technical difficulties with the website at this time you

will need to go in through Internet Explorer to use the type and save version. Make sure to use the

correct version for your age division.

If you have already started your portfolio with last years version from the state level please do not

panic because we will be accepting both versions this year. Remember filling out a portfolio helps

to earn scholarships, trips and awards.

******Portfolios are due September 15th to your local extension office by 4pm. Remember this a

great way to win awards at Achievement Night in November.

Leaders:

Rachel Olsen and Julie Miner are working on putting together a project list and

a list of leaders that are available to help with those projects for the general

membership to use as a resource for help in that project area. If you are availa-

ble to help with a particular project please call the office at 754-8836 to let them

know you would like to be on the list.
