Clovers & Co. Applications

 

Talented musicians, singers, and dancers are encouraged to apply and audition for Georgia 4‑H Clovers & Co. This group is made up of 4-H members from all across Georgia. Each year, 4-H members submit their application, prepare an audition, and try out for the group. It is really tough to get a spot in Clovers & Co. Currently, Evie Woodward is a member of the 2108-2019 Clovers and Co. cast.  Applications are due in the Coffee County Extension office by May 10 and auditions will be held at Rock Eagle 4‑H Center in early June. Contact the Coffee County Extension office for more details at (912) 384-1402.

Prizes of gift cards are given for each age division (Cloverleaf, Junior, & Senior). Gift cards are $100 for 1st, $75 for 2nd, and $50 for 3rd. Entries are due in the Coffee County Extension office by Friday, April 26.

Each year, Georgia 4-H offers five contests for members who are interested in photography. Photos must be submitted in digital file. The images cannot be altered and must be submitted as they were taken. Entries for the photo contest are due in the Coffee County 4-H office by May 1 in order to receive points for the reward trip. It is due to the state 4-H office by July 31. Please start taking pictures early so you will have some great photos to select from for your entries into these contests.

 

The five contests include Focus on Agriculture  and STEM (farming or science related); Focus on Camp and Environmental Education; Focus on Citizenship, Leadership, and Service; Focus on Healthy Living; and Focus on Volunteerism.

 

Remember, photos must be taken by the 4-H member or volunteer who is submitting them. Start now so you will have some great photos from which to choose. There are great opportunities to get photos year round in South Georgia, so take advantage of this opportunity and get some great photos to enter into this contest.
