Have you heard? The Texas 4-H & Youth Development Program is hosting the first-ever statewide 4-H Volunteer Conference! The conference is scheduled for July 29-31 in San Antonio. Any 4-H volunteer is invited to join us for a high-energy, dynamic and engaging conference that will address the emerging issues of youth development and the Texas 4-H Program. The two and one-half day conference will be filled with quality educational workshops and general sessions.
The conference will kick off with an evening of dinner, meet and greet, State of the 4-H Program Address from Dr. Chris Boleman, and a keynote address from engaging communicator and a leading teen expert, Grant Baldwin.
Saturday and Sunday will be filled with a variety of educational workshops certain to entice and meet the needs of any adult involved in the Texas 4-H & Youth Development Program. Workshops are structured in varying lengths - from weekend tracks, all day workshops, half-day workshops and 1-2 hour workshops - allowing volunteers to focus on one topic or several areas of interest.
As we continue to rely more and more on our volunteers to meet the needs of our clientele and achieve our goals, it's important that we are providing them with professional development opportunities. Consider sending a volunteer to the conference as a "thank you" for all they've done for your county program.
