| Impact Report | Following the steps and worksheets provided by 4-H/’Everyone Ready’, volunteer activity improved in the indoor exhibit building during the fair week. Regular volunteers are dependable, but overworked. More help was needed. Extension and two other volunteers met to build a recruitment strategy. Worksheets were completed to determine needs, job descriptions, sources and methods for recruitment. New Recruitments included Youth Council members from the high school who decorated all of the showcases. 4-H and FFA youth helped the last day of fair during entry returns and show case cleanup. Adult leaders were recruited from local fiber arts groups for displaying entries after judging and tallying up entry scores. By using ‘Everyone Ready’ we could present our needs in an organized way so that potential volunteers understood what type of help was needed. The result was less time commitment and less stress for all volunteers. Volunteers have reacted positively to the experience and most plan to help again next year. |
