The Pandemic of 2020 brought new challenges to 4-H Programming. In order to keep 4-H members engaged in project work, virtual programming was implemented. Over a 15 week time period, agents created take-home kits, pre-recorded videos and held zoom meetings to engage 4-H members to complete projects for the county fair. Participants were challenged with baking, photography, wood working, crochet and knitting, and acrylic painting to name just a few. Older teens were recruited to demonstrate many of the project kits. Survey results indicated that 90% of participants learned how to read a recipe and use measuring cups & spoons, 78% of youth participating in these projects learned new skills. One participant stated “I learned a lot from the kits over the summer. I gained many new skills in painting and photography and in baking. I also learned how to read a recipe and when to add in dry and liquid ingredients”. In total 605 projects were completed.
