Hello Everyone! Another month has flown by. As we are looking forward to the increasing daylight and dreams of summertime, we have a lot going on in our 4-H District and Statewide! Please check these things out and always keep an eye on our district calendar for events.
  • Alaska Teen Media Institute (ATMI) is still meeting on Thursdays at 3 via zoom. They are looking for high school aged-youth to learn the ins and outs of media design and production, and also they are looking for youth to interview (both on camera and off) for inclusion in the development of some 4-H PSAs. Contact Kendra at klcalhoun@alaska.edu for all the information (meeting ID, etc.)
  • The Alaska 4-H Statewide Shooting Sports Program is conducting Jeopardy! nights. Check out their webpage for more information.
