WHAT’S INSIDE:

Congratulations 4-H’ers Dear 4-H Family,

Our new 4-H year is underway. I hope you continue to invite your friends to join our 4-H family. We have many opportunities to offer mem-bers.

Now is the time of year to be thankful for all you have—family, friends, home, food. It’s also a good time to think about the less fortunate and share with them. Being a 4-H’er, you have learned to help others year round. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations to everyone who received awards at the Annual Meet-ing. We’re proud of each and every 4-H’er. A special thank you goes to the hard working County 4-H Council for doing a superb job as spokesper-sons for 4-H.

MISSION STATEMENT

4-H EMPOWERS YOUTH TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL WORKING

AND LEARNING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH CARING ADULTS

Harrison County 4-H’ers Show at Ak-Sar-Ben Expo

Remember that 4-H has a state program development

ering 4-H’ers, and first year members do not pay the

$30 fee.

A Drum Roll for the Clover Award The Clover Award goes to the outgoing County 4-H Council members. The Council worked well together carrying out many activities and had many good times. It was a pleasure for me to work with this talented group of individuals.

I hope each of them has many memories about their council experiences and that they keep working to pro-mote 4-H. Thank you to the 2016-2017 County 4-H Council for an active, fun-filled year! Outgoing members include: Austin Adair, Kaitlynn Barksdale, Emma Dahir, Brianna Darnell, Samantha Harman, Shelby Kurth, Bailey Scha-ben, Owen Smith and Faith Spencer.

Five Harrison County 4-H members participated in the an-

nual Ak-Sar-Ben 4-H Stock Show held September 28 through

October 1 at the Nebraska State Fairgrounds,

Fonner Park, Grand Island. Harrison County 4-H

Animal Science Round-Up

Don’t forget that all 4-H mem-bers in grades 4-12 are required to be FSQA certified if they are show-ing/selling beef, sheep, swine, poultry, dairy, goats, or rabbits at the fair. Members who are in grades 4-6 must attend a FSQA workshop each year to be certified. Certifica-tions for workshops expire each year. Members who are in grades 7-12 may attend a training or take a test. The ‘intermediate’ test for stu-dents in grades 7-9 must be

passed with a 70%. Members who pass the ‘intermediate’ test are certified until they reach grade 10. Members who are in grades 10-12 must take the ‘advanced’ test. If they pass with a 70% they are cer-tified until they are turn 20. FSQA requirements must be completed prior to July 1. 4-Her’s also need to be aware of the COOL (Country of Origin Labeling) requirements. For de-tailed information on this, go to http://www.extension.iastate.edu/4h/projects/livestock .

If you are interested in attending Animal Science

Round-Up, June 26-28, you will need to apply to at-

tend by March 1. They only take a limited number of

people for each species. Species available are beef,

poultry, sheep and swine. If you want more infor-

mation, call the Extension Office at 712-644-2105.

4-Her’s also need to be aware

4-H IS BASED ON RESEARCH TO MAKE THE BEST BETTER

Remember that Harrison County 4-H re-enrollments are now done online. More infor-mation on how to proceed is available at http://www.extension.iastate.edu/4h/page/4honline-information-families-and-leaders . The actual 4H Online website is located at https://iowa.4honline.com/ . You and your parents will also complete the medical infor-mation and the youth code of conduct on-line. Remember that we cannot activate your re-enrollment until we have your medical information release and the youth code of conduct completed online (or with completed, signed paper copies on file at the Extension Office). If you do not have a family email account, you will need to contact the Extension Office for as-sistance. 4-H’ers should be re-enrolled in the 4hOnline system by December 1 (particularly those en-rolled in the beef project). If you are not enrolled by then, your weigh-in information can-not be processed. Please pay particular attention to birthdates and grades when completing your forms. If you give us incorrect data, you may miss out on information pertaining to your age group or grade, because the computer often uses your grade for sorting. If your family is in the system, but has a new 4-H family member joining this year, that youth may be added online, however, new, first-time 4-H families will need to enroll with a paper form for their first year and Extension office staff will enter the information online. New 4-H’ers can continue to enroll until May 1 and be eligible to exhibit at county fair. Remember that there is a state 4-H program development fee of $30 for each 4-H'er in grades 4 through 12. Check with your club to see how they are handling this fee. Harrison County Extension will pay $15 of that fee (from apple pie/muffin auction monies) leaving $15 due from each 4-H'er. There are some additional scholarships available. Call the office for more information. Clover Kids (K through 2nd grade) and Discovering 4-H’ers (3rd grade) do not pay the $30 fee. First time 4-H members do not pay the fee their first year, either. 4-H’ers with an active military parent also do not need to pay the fee.

Questions? Call the Extension Office at 712-644-2105 or stop in and talk to us.

Hoover Uncommon Student Award for Iowa High School Juniors

Hixson Opportunity Awards

more than $15,000 over eight

semesters offered annually to

one student from each of Iowa’s

99 counties. Once enrolled,

Hixson Scholars at Iowa State

regularly surpass national and

university averages for grade-point,

persistence, and graduation. More

than 650 Hixson Scholars have now

graduated from Iowa State University.

The online application is now avail-

able for the 2018 Hixson Awards.

The application includes an electronic

request for recommendation. https://

Priority application deadline is Janu-

ary 1, 2018.

Many scholarships are available to

honor the best and brightest students.

Often missing from that spotlight are

students with the ability and determina-

tion but more modest resumes or rec-

ords of performance due to circumstanc-

es beyond their control.

Since 1995, the Hixson Awards have

recognized more than 1,300 of these

Iowa high school students in their quest

for a college education.

The Hixson Opportunity Award is a

half-tuition scholarship, estimated at

Attention H. S. Juniors...

the summer between their junior and

senior year.

In October of their senior year, at the

Herbert Hoover Presidential Library-

Museum, finalists make presentations

about their projects.

Each student receives $1000 at that

time. Three of those students are cho-

sen to receive a $5,000 scholarship

award for study at an accredited two or

four year college or university anywhere

in the country.

The postmark deadline is March 15,

2018.

The award is sponsored by the Hoover

Presidential Library Association, a non-

profit support group for the Hoover Presi-

dential Library-Museum and National His-

toric Site in West Branch.

Application brochures are now available

for the 2016 Herbert Hoover Uncommon

Student Award, a $5,000 scholarship

program for Iowa high school juniors.

Students are not evaluated on the

basis of grades, test scores, essays, or

financial need. Applicants submit a pro-

posal for a goal they want to accom-

plish.

Up to 15 students are selected each

year on the basis of their stated project

goal and detailed plans to reach that

goal. Two letters of recommendation

are also required. Finalists spend a

required expense-paid weekend in West

Branch (just east of Iowa City) during

4-H’ers representing Harrison County on the Region 17 4-H Youth Leadership Council are: Cameryn Schafer, Leah Mil-

Increase Community Service in Your Club

Good citizenship in practice is

understanding, appreciating, and

doing things that make life better for

others in your community. Here are

some ideas for helping your commu-

nity.

Recognize veterans in your

community.

• Trim a Christmas tree with mit-

tens and stocking hats and do-

nate them to local schools,

homeless shelters, or a clothing

pantry.

Rake leaves, shovel snow, clean

gutters, or wash windows for a

senior citizen.

Do art projects with people in

nursing homes (finger paint,

sponge paint, make snow-

flakes, design cards).

For the food pantry—contribute

the needed items of laundry

soup, personal care items, and

paper products. Volunteer to

help sort and stack items in

your local food pantry.
