4-H Woodworking Project

Carlisle County 4-H youth gained knowledge in woodworking and wood skills. Several of the youth had never worked with wood in making a project before reported by the parents.  The girls’ outnumbered the guys. The group was involved in the wood project and they felt out of their comfort zone. When it was completed, they all expressed how glad they were they signed up to participate. The wood workers handled the project very well. They gained knowledge and cooperation skills from each other while using tools and helping nail their wood toolbox together. The wood class expressed their interest in attending again next year. All the parents were very pleased with their sons and daughters wood project. This motivated the youth to bring their project to Rally Days and attend other 4-H project days.
