In June, the NEP Super Star Chef Camp was offered to all of 4-H. The Director of Programs at the Boys and Girls Club saw this program and asked if we could offer it to Boys and Girls Club members. The Daviess County FCS Agent, All Areas Program Assistant, and one of the 4-H Agents set up a camp in July just for Boys and Girls Club members. Eleven youth were transported to the Daviess County Extension Office to participate in this three-day camp. Prior to the NEP Super Star Chef Camp, 9% of youth reported the correct way of holding on knife, 9% reported the correct way to guide food when using a knife, 18% reported “chill” as the fourth step to keep food safe, and 55% reported the safe position for a pot handle while cooking on the stove. After the NEP Super Star Chef Camp, 70% of youth reported the correct way of holding a knife, 80% reported the correct way to guide food when using a knife, 70% reported “chill” as the fourth step to keep food safe, and 100% reported the safe position for a pot handle while cooking on the stove
