Outcome: Initial Outcome
In preparation for the 2022 Taylor County Fair, Taylor County 4-H collaborated with 8 Taylor County Homemakers to offer three County Fair Project Day Camps to help the youth prepare projects for the fair. They included a Jewelry Making Day Camp, Visual Arts Day Camp, and Home Environment Day Camp. The 38 participants learned about and created different projects each day they were able to exhibit at the County Fair the following week. During the process of creating their project they learned many hands-on lessons on how to use different tools safely, such as scissors, hot glue guns and how to work with wire.
Lunch for each of the three-day camps was utilized as a learning opportunity as well. Participants were taught each day how to create a budget friendly, healthy, and easy meal they could later create themselves with the skills learned from this lesson. It was many of the participants first time cooking, so they also gained important kitchen skills like how to measure wet vs. dry ingredients, use a knife and oven safety.
