4-H SPIN CLUBS
4-H has new SPIN clubs coming to Pulaski County. What’s a
SPIN Club? A 4-H SPIN club is a special interest club where
five or more young people learn about a topic of interest. Topics
vary and include interests, such as nature, heritage arts, sci-
ence, engineering, gardening, technology, and more. SPIN
clubs are led by volunteers who have a passion and want to
share their knowledge with young people. SPIN volunteers can
have a positive impact on the next generation of young people
in their community by sharing their experience and
knowledge. SPIN clubs are planned around the volunteer's
availability. Each club meets six or more times for at least one
hour per session. Meeting dates are set by the volunteer, based
on the availability of potential participants. The meeting loca-
tion is selected for the type of activity and number of partici-
pants. We have a SPIN Club starting in
Waynesville in August. This SPIN Club is a
Dog Training Class see page 2 for information.
SPIN Volunteers Needed
In 4-H, we believe in learning by doing. SPIN volunteers pro-
vide hands-on learning for young people. They learn to build,
create, explore, make, discover, test, plan, cut, estimate, exper-
iment, experience, measure, draw - the list goes on and on. Do
you have a passion, skill, or talent that you would like to share
with young people? You can make a difference in the lives of
young people by teaching them skills that they can use the rest
of their lives. Contact us today with your interest and and your
availability schedule and we’ll make it happen. We are also
currently looking for project leaders for Richland After School
Program, The Bear Den. Tuesday’s August through June from
4:00-5:00 pm.
