| Impact Report | Seventeen adult volunteer leaders attended a training on Effective Club Leadership. Leaders gained knowledge and skills related to county and state activities, parliamentary procedure, livestock project nomination procedures, contests, record keeping, and school enrichment, youth activities and communication. Evaluations reveal a mean score of 4.45 on a scale of 1 to 5 (with a score of 1 being poor and a score of 5 being excellent). Twenty-six Master Gardener 4-H SEEDS volunteers were trained and utilized in conducting special interest programs to reach 1235 youth during the SEEDS Program. Training was provided on the SEEDS curricula, classroom logistics and protocol, introducing the 4-H program to youth and interesting topics to include in their presentation. Youth work with adult partners to solicit donations and sponsorships for 4-H programming, and county fair needs as well conducting fundraisers. The County conducted a variety of fundraisers to send youth on trips; provide for countywide trainings and socials; and maintain funds for general operations. Fundraisers included: Rodeo ticket sales, Rodeo and Fair sponsorships, “Grogfest” dinner, a Tea Party and assisting with Western Shooting Horse Events. The county raised over $10,000 toward providing quality programs. Youth gained knowledge and skills in organizing fundraisers and managing money as well as constructive youth/adult partnerships. 24 new adult volunteer leaders completed the screening process and enrolled as leaders in Bernalillo County. 94 adult volunteer leaders reenrolled for a total enrollment of 122 leaders in the county. |
