 2006 Fall Annual Teen Scene Newsletter Trip Opportunities 4-H members, 14 to 18 years as of January 1, 2007, may apply for one of several state trip and leadership opportunities funded by the Clark County 4-H Committee. Interested 4-H members must complete the Clark County Trip Opportunity and Awards Form and participate in an interview with a 4-H Committee representative. The deadline to submit a completed Clark County Trip Opportunity and Awards Form is March 1, 2007. You must use this form when applying unless you are also applying for State Achievement Awards then you may use the Achievement Form and attach the questions from the Trip Form to your Achievement Application. International Opportunities 4-H not only is wide-spread in the United States. It can take you to a whole new world! Through the 4-H Exchange programs (LABO and IFYE), youth and adults alike can host students from other countries, as well as take trips themselves to learn about 4-H in other places. It’s exciting to think 4-H exists in over 88 different countries! If you are interested in traveling abroad to study in another country, or would be willing to host a student in your home, please contact the Extension Office at 937-328-4607 for more details! 4-H CARTEENS Think you would like working with other kids your age? The 4-H Carteens program is a vehicular safety program for first-time traffic offenders where teens teach teens about traffic safety (speeding, seatbelt safety, consequences, defensive driving and driving under the influence.) This program is a collaborative effort of 4-H, the Juvenile Court, and the State Highway Patrol. The 4-H CARTEENS programs are held the second Thursday of every other month from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. We are in need of youth 15 1/2-19 to be trained as CARTEEN facilitators. If you are interested in becoming a 4-H Carteen Facilitator, please contact the OSU Extension, Clark County Office at 937-328-4607.
