Upon top of Carroll County 4-H projects,(Crochet by zoom, art by zoom, robotics by zoom, homeschool by zoom and some community service events)) many of Carroll County members are taking advantage of the state specialists" offerings. What a great opportunity for our members. Thank you so much. I am going to spotlight one of those members.
Brenna has attended all Winter Naturalist in Training Meetings with Ashley Osborne, learning everything from how to make homemade bird suet, to sampling water sources for aquatic insects. She has completed all Winter Naturalist in Training monthly challenges including making upcycled bird feeders and participating in Project FeederWatch. Thanks to Kim Ledger, Brenna also submitted a picture for the calendar and her picture is featured as January in the calendar.
Brenna is an officer (Speaker of the Kitchen) for the 8th grade members of the Bake-A-Long Club. Her officer duties include researching a baking fact each month to share with their group and recording minutes of small group meeting to report for everyone. She has attended every monthly bake and completed each monthly baking challenge. Homemade gingerbread, apple cages, and bread making from scratch are just a sampling of the recipes she is learning. Thank you Cathy Weaver.
Brenna has also campaigned and currently holding the Historian position for the Middle School Leadership Club. Her duties include researching a leader from the past, present, or future and sharing her fellow club members. She has visited historical landmarks, learned about holidays in other cultures around the world, attended local government meetings, and discovering parliamentary procedure. Thank you Rachel Noble.
These clubs have been the key to keeping an active learner engaged and thriving in this unprecedented time we are all living through. Thank you Kentucky 4-H state office for offering such a dynamic resource to aid in involving and encouraging our children.
