Cinnamon dip recipe and 4-H events update

Kevin Tatum, County Extension Coordinator

This week’s easy recipe comes from the UGA SNAP-ED’s Food Talk, Cinnamon Dip. The list of ingredients includes 1/2 cup plain non-fat yogurt, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, and 1os cinnamon. Place yogurt in small (1 cup) bowl. Add brown sugar and a dash of cinnamon to the yogurt. Stir until well mixed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve with your favorite fruits, such as apple wedges, banana slices, strawberries, or peaches. 

     

For some great ideas in the kitchen, visit the UGA Extension’s “FoodTalk” website at https://foodtalk.org. It has great ideas on how to keep your family healthy by making nutritious food choices on a budget.

4-H Update

Each week, our state 4-H staff is reviewing the status of everything that is going on in the state and making a determination about upcoming 4-H events. Last week, it was decided to cancel or postpone all events and competitions for the month of May that involved people coming together. This means that the rescheduled Poultry Judging Contests, senior 4-H camp, Georgia Officer Training, and much more were either cancelled, postponed, or moved to an online format. We have not been informed at this time about any events in June. Since our cloverleaf 4-H camp is scheduled for June 1-5, we expect to hear soon whether or not it will be cancelled. If cancelled, we have been told that everyone will get a refund of all funds paid in to the 4-H office.

     

With that being said, if you are signed up for one of our summer 4-H camps, please continue to submit your camp fees. If we end up not going to camp, we will be refunding all paid fees to the participant. If we do go to camp, your fees will need to be turned in by May 1st.

     

With regards to camp, we will also have a virtual Cloverleaf 4-H Camp Orientation Meeting. It will still be on Monday, May 18, at 6 PM, so please save the date. 4-H members attending camp and at least one of their parents will need to join in on the meeting.

Dairy Poster Contest

The theme for the 2020 June Dairy Month 4-H Poster Contest is “The Art of Dairy.” Posters must be 14″ x 22″ and copyrighted characters MAY NOT be used. Posters should contain only original hand-drawn artwork which is done by the 4-H member submitting the entry. No computer generated text or artwork may be used. Keep it simple and to the point. Complete a contest entry form (available on the http://coffee4h.org web site) and tape/paste it on the back of your poster in the upper right corner. We will complete the boxed portion on this form. Next, take a picture of your poster and entry form using a cell phone or digital camera and send it electronically through email to the county 4-H office by Friday, April 24, at cwoods@uga.edu. Please make sure that the pictures show your poster and entry form clearly and with adequate light. We will then submit your photos to the state 4-H office for judging.

     

Posters will be scored on: originality (40 percent), follows theme (20 percent), conveys message (15 percent), general appearance (15 percent), and accurate information (10 percent). Prizes of gift cards are given for each 4-H age division (Cloverleaf, Junior, and Senior). Gift cards are $100 for 1st, $75 for 2nd, and $50 for 3rd.

Can Tabs

Everyone is encouraged to collect can tabs off aluminum cans to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities project. These can tabs help provide money to the Ronald McDonald House for their operating fees.

     

The Ronald McDonald House Charities offer free or low cost housing and meals to families of children receiving medical attention at larger hospitals in Atlanta, Augusta, Columbus, Macon and Savannah. By donating can tabs, you are helping to provide housing and meals for families who are burdened by hospital bills and do not need the extra burden of housing and meals for the family staying at the hospital. Hopefully you will never have to use the Ronald McDonald House, but it is great that it is there in case you should ever need it.

     

Please continue collecting can tabs through the current COVID-19 crisis and bring them to the Extension (4-H) office after social distancing restrictions have been lifted.

     

If you would like to learn how you can become more involved with the Coffee County 4-H program, please contact the Coffee County Extension office at (912) 384-1402 or visit our website at http://coffee4h.org.
