FALL FORUM

The Georgia 4-H Board of Directors are planning a fun-filled weekend for Fall Forum, “4-H FAMEily, Where You Are the Star!” The weekend includes a mix of workshops and educational sessions along with opportunities for community service and exhibits. Registration for Fall Forum is open to any current 9th-12th grade 4-H members in the 2017-2018 school term. This event provides many opportunities for project work, competition, networking, and training for youth and adults.

Early bird registration fee of $70 is due by Monday, November 13. Regular registration is $75 and is due by Monday, November 27. The registration fee covers Saturday lunch, dinner, and lodging, as well as Sunday breakfast. Pizzas can be ordered Saturday morning or at lunch and are $12 each.

There will be a Fall Forum 4K race on Sunday morning. The registration fee for the race is $12 and includes a Clover Glove race t-shirt.

4-H members can apply to teach a workshop at Fall Forum. The application form is on the Fall Forum website at http://www.georgia4h.org/fallforum/. Application deadline is Friday, November 17. Students may also apply to enter an exhibit in the Exhibit Fair. This would be a great way to add to your DPA Portfolio’s Helping and Sharing section.

One of the training opportunities is the Georgia 4-H Certified Teen Leader Training. If you are a senior 4-H member who has never taken the training, this is a great opportunity for you.

You are also asked to contribute canned foods to the “4‑H Cans Hunger” service project. Be sure to turn in your canned foods to the 4-H office before December 1.

Please feel free to contact the 4-H office if you have additional questions about Fall Forum.
