Impact Reports
Kids N'Kows N'More 4-H Program: This Agent assisted co-worker, 4-H Agent Sachse, with the Kids n’ Kows educational program for APS youth. Responsibility was to facilitate the movement between five educational stations. This program objective was to expose the urban youth to the world of agriculture with five stations. Those stations were: Milk Parlor, 4-H Youth Leadership Activity, Sheep shearing, Horse Demonstration, and NM Beef Council. Each station had 18 minutes to tell about what each station represented. The timing was critical to educate, rotate and educate again. There were five and two minute warnings over the PA system, and the call to rotate groups. When the groups were late, scheduling changes had to be made. This two-day program exposed 353 youth to agriculture. The teachers were very complimentary about what they learned. The youth were given a carton of milk when the program ended.
4-H Shooting Sports Orientation & Basic Archery Workshop: Prepared materials stressing different 4-H Shooting Sports disciplines, project and contest guidelines for the shooting sports program. There were six youth attend the orientation. Similarly, I arranged for a basic archery workshop with three instructors and was set up outside for the event. We worked with nine youth and leaders. 60% of the youth had not shot archery before. 95% were hitting the target at least 3 out of 5 shots by the end of the basic archery workshop.
4-H Achievement Night: The Bernalillo County 4-H Staff and County 4-H Council hosted the annual 4-H Achievement night for the past year’s accomplishments. This Agent’s part was to recognize the 4-H Shooting Sports and 4-H Rodeo ticket sales, and sponsors sales achievers with cash incentives. The audience was ninety-five adults and youth, and over 400 accomplishments were recognized for both.
Bernalillo County 4-H Open House (2007): The Bernalillo County 4-H Staff invited the general public who completed “4-H interest” forms distributed at the County and NM State fairs. Over 147 people attended the orientation and visited club booths to join 4-H. This is one way we tried to reach diverse audiences and to make all reasonable efforts to recruit youth membership. This was 47 more clientele than in 2006 partially due to better media coverage of the 50th Anniversary 4-H Fair & Rodeo in 2007.
