Outcome: Initial Outcome
This was the second year after my completion of AVAA I worked with my District to plan and implement a training for our 4-H volunteers to earn education, answer questions and Livestock and Horse leaders to gain recertification hours. The committee that worked to make this event happen was Kim Ragland, Alison Johnson, Kristen Kirkland, and myself. This event had 35 volunteers, instructors and specialists from District 4 in attendance. We held 6 workshops ranging from Horse, Livestock, Working with Difficult Youth, Agent/Volunteer Relationships, Fine Arts, SET, Teen Leadership/JR.MANRRS. Volunteers were present from multiple counties in District 4. Volunteers received an appreciation gift for attending and dinner. Evaluations of the program stated:
-They plan to take the following programs/ideas back to their counties and Implement (59%)-JR. MANRRS program, Robots, Rcokets, Information for parents who have livestock questions, dealing with problem behavior youth, printmaking.
-In the Future Volunteers would like to see improvements in the training: -More Participation (39%), Networking Opportunities for Volunteers (41%),
-Participants who receieved Recertification Hours for Horse/Livestock Programs (68%)
