A leader's meeting was held in 2006 to bring leaders together to receive literature and learn about volunteer leader screening. Leaders received important materials pertaining to re-enrollment for current 4-H members, enrollment for new members, and leader enrollment. There are 8 clubs in Quay County and leaders from 7 of these clubs attended (87%). The intended outcome of leader education programs is to have 100% attendance. Factors such as distance, time of meeting, and prior commitments prevented the full attendance level from being achieved. The 4-H agent will set a goal to meet this requirement by tying in a regular Quay County Leader Association meeting or County Council meeting in with programs such as these so that all leaders will be attracted to attending. The outcome of this program was that the clubs which were represented received all literature needed to begin and conduct the enrollment process. The program also included a short presentation by the 4-H agent concerning the new process of leader screening. Of the participants at the meeting, 100% completed all necessary paperwork to start the leader screening process. Also, the leaders who attended provided as useful liasons between prospective project leaders and the Extension office.
