For Objective Short-term Show short-term objectives
Impact Report Provided 4-H volunteer orientation to prospective volunteers. Six people attended. Two expressed interest after the program.After scheduled interviews and a discussion with them individually, one decided to volunteer as an assistant while I taught the summer cooking classes. The second person initially felt she would enjoy acting as a project leader. Part of the orientation was to provide the prospective volunteer the opportunity to teach her project to youth with the 4-H agent also in attendance.After a couple of class sessions the volunteer discussed with me her dislike for working with children. By providing volunteers education and experience in the 4-H program, the county has gained a volunteer active in a 4-H capacity that suits her lifestyle. Although not interested in youth programming, the second volunteer is now active in fair volunteer work as an exhibit superintendent and recruiting other volunteers. Through the 4-H orientation process, Luna County gained two valuable volunteers and prevented uncomfortable situations from occurring.
