Your 2014 State Council
Friday, July 31, 2009
This month of July was spent mostly with our State Council Team. First in the beggining of July was our trip to New Mexico. The New Mexico State Leadership Team invited us to join them for their State Conference which was a combination similar to our State Leadership Conference and our State Achievement Days. While at the the conference we presented on two workshops. One was on Public Speaking and the other on People Skills. In New Mexico we really got to see how beautiful it is and how different the climate is. As a team we brought back many different ideas that we hope to use at our State Leadership Conference. Thank You to the New Mexico Leadership Team for having us at your State Conference, it was truly an amazing learning experience that I know we will never forget.
Our next Council adventure was State Achievement Days at the Penn State University. For State Achievemnt Days we planned the opening ceremonies and announced the 4-h'ers that placed in the top 5 during closing ceremonies. Opening ceremonies got everyone "Rev'ed Up" with our first ever State Days video. In our video four of our State Council members played one of the four H's and they competed in a race across campus to try to win the "Clover Cup". I played the character Carly Carrot who was representing team "Health". Our State Council Team had a lot of fun making the video and plan to include different media and technology like that in the future for other events.
During our week we met with Ms. Christy Bartley our State 4-H Program Leader. We met for lunch and talked about some differneces we noticed between New Mexico and Pennsylvania's programs. We also went over some changes that may occur with our program.
I hope everyone had a safe trip home after closing ceremoies ended. Congratulations to all the 4-H's who came to State Achievement Days and Good Luck for next year. Please remember to save your soda tabs for our statewide sevice project collected during the State Leadership Conference to benefit the Ronald McDonald House.
Look for your State 4-H Council at Ag Progress Days.
Make the most of the rest of Summer.
Sincerely,
Jamie Forinash
State 4-H Council President
July!
Hello to one and all!!!
Wow did the month of July fly by! So much happened this month between the New Mexico trip and State Achievement Days. I guess it is better to start at the beginning and work toward the end.
At the beginning of the month we were all preparing for our trip to New Mexico State University. It was a great experience and we had a blast (I know that I did!). After the New Mexico Council visited Pennsylvania for our State Leadership Conference, it was decided to return the favor and attend their State Conference. We flew out of the State College Airport on July 12 and ended up in El Paso, Texas later that afternoon. After the flight, three total, we had a nice drive through the mountains up to Las Cruces, New Mexico. Throughout the week we participated in an array of activities that included a carnival, visiting the NASA testing facility, the Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum, and presenting two leadership workshops. Our first workshop was on public speaking. We got the members involved by using our Fish Bowl method and having them practice impromptu ideas. The other workshop focused on people skills. We presented ways to be able to speak with people and how to stay yourself while being professional. The New Mexico 4-H members also taught us a few things along the way. At their dances, they Two Step to everything, and we had the chance to try it for ourselves. That week brought us even closer as a team and gave us the chance to show ourselves to another part of the country. It was time to head home to cooler temperatures and a different time zone on that Friday. All of our luggage followed us to New Mexico and it kept up on the way home too. The only trouble we ran into was on our final flight from Detroit to State College, when the plane's navigation did not work and we had to stay in the airport until 12:30 am on Saturday. This gave us the chance to talk to others in the airport about 4-H.
Then there was State Achievement Days!! As I am still unpacking from this past week, I look back on what happened. We started out with the amazing video, that Alex was a genius with. Our theme for the week was "Rev Up" so what better to do than have a race between the Head, Heart, Hands, and Health? All in all the message behind the race was that when all 4 of the H's work together is when they are at their best. Dean Bruce McPheron gave the opening welcome and our State Program Leader, Ms. Christy Bartley presented the awards to three incredible 4-H members. Following opening ceremonies came this years keynote speaker, Ms. Laurie Stewart who spoke on an array of topics spanning from respect to peer pressure. For Wednesday the contests began and the council had a meeting over lunch with Ms. Bartley to bounce some ideas around about the program and things we thought of during our visit to New Mexico. Thursday brought on Closing Ceremonies and the awards which went amazing. After that everyone cleaned up and headed home.
This is only a summary of what went on for the council over the past month and believe me that so much has happened. Keep watching for more updates from the 2009 State 4-H Council to see what we are up to and what is going on in Pennsylvania 4-H.
Good bye for now!

Summer fun!
Hello fellow 4-H enthusiasts!
I hope this little note finds you all well and recuperating from all the fun activities at State Achievement Days located at the Pennsylvania State University. Your State 4-H Council has had a very busy month. On July 12th we all flew out of the State College Airport on the first leg of our journey to New Mexico. After one connecting flight from Detroit to Houston and another connecting flight from Houston to El Paso, we boarded a van and set out for Las Cruces, New Mexico. Las Cruces is home to New Mexico State University, where the New Mexico State 4-H Conference would be taking place. We were invited to attend the New Mexico State Conference by the New Mexico State Officer team, which as some of you know, attended the Pennsylvania 4-H State Leadership Conference in January of 2009. I know I speak for all of your council when I say the experience we had in New Mexico was one which we will never forget. Throughout the week we participated in an array of activities which included a tour of the NASA Test Facility in White Sands and the Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum. One difference between New Mexico’s conference and our own is that they do all of their contests and leadership workshops in one event while Pennsylvania’s events are split into State Leadership Conference and State Achievement Days. While in attendance, we presented two workshops, one on public speaking and one on people skills. Not only did we gain a vast array of new ideas, your State Council also learned how to “Two-Step” (with the help of the New Mexico Leadership Team of course). At the conference there was a dance every night we were there so learning this dance was critical. After many fond memories, we boarded our first plane and headed back for Houston. Our flights were all good except for the last one on the way home, which was from Detroit to State College. A glitch was found in the navigation system and we had to wait until 12:30 A.M. to board another plane. We didn’t mind waiting though because we would rather have a plane in full working order than coming home quickly on one with a broken navigation system!
For some of you out there, you may still be unpacking from State Achievement Days like I am! We had an excellent week with nearly perfect weather (except for Wednesday night!). State Days started out with a bang on Tuesday night, or maybe it was more like “Ready, set, GO!” with the first ever State Days video which showed the Clover Cup in full swing and how important it is for head, heart, hands, and health to work together. Then the College of Agricultural Sciences Dean Bruce McPheron welcomed everyone and spoke with us about using head, heart, hands, and health to enrich our lives every day. Following Dean McPheron was our very own State 4-H Program Leader, Ms. Christy Bartley. Ms. Bartley welcomed the anxious crowd of 4-Hers and presented awards to three dedicated youth. After Ms. Bartley, our keynote speaker, Ms. Laurie Stewart, took the stage with a presentation packed full of videos, a skit, activities, and personal stories. After explaining the importance of taking healthy risks, how to overcome peer pressure, and how to deal with issues within your life, everyone went back to their dorms for some much needed rest. Wednesday everyone was headed in their own direction with different events and activities for the day. From Fashion Revue and the Talent and Choral Review to Avian Bowl and Tractor Driving, there were plenty of things to do. On Wednesday, your State Council had the opportunity to have lunch with Ms. Christy Bartley and discussed some of the differences between PA 4-H and New Mexico’s 4-H and new ideas we had. State Achievement Days wrapped up on Thursday morning with Closing Ceremonies. After Closing Ceremonies, everyone gathered their belongings and began on their trip back home.
I would like to remind you to keep collecting tabs and other donations for the Ronald McDonald House. The tabs will be collected at the State Leadership Conference in January of 2010. Our State Leadership Conference theme this year is: “License to Lead,” a spy/James Bond theme. We have some really great workshops and speakers planned, so I hope to see you there!
As I have promised, here is my quote for the month. My hope is that you find them as useful as I do.
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

July- A Month of Excitement
Hello Pa 4-Her’s
July has been one of our council’s most busy months so far. It marked our term being half way done. Well, at least for some of us. With the 4-H year changing this year’s council team along with last year’s team has been given the opportunity to serve on a combined council team for six months.
I started out the month by contacting almost every club in my county in hopes to visit them all in a club visit. My work had paid off and I saw my action causing reactions when more and more pop tabs started to be collected.
In the middle of the month our team had the honor of traveling to New Mexico for their 4-H state conference! I had the best time and our team had the chance to do some personal bonding. During our tour to the Heritage center I even got to hold a Tumble Weed! We also had the chance to meet some amazing 4-H members across the nation and learn how to two step.
The last “race” for our team this month was our state 4-H achievement days. We had an awesome time revving everyone up for their contests and different events. Our term as a team is half way over and now core planning will begin for our State Leadership Conference-License to lead. It seems like just yesterday we were all strangers getting to know each other as we put on our green blazers. Now we are a “family” planning for the conference that we will retire from office at. I hope everyone enjoys their last month in summer vacation and good luck to everyone as school starts again!
Your secretary,
Christy Lambert

July-Council Bonding Time!
Hey PA 4-H!
July has been a crazy month for Council; it has also been the most time we have spent together as a team.
This month was one of the highlights of our year-New Mexico! On the 12th, we took flights from State College to Detroit, then to Houston, El Paso, and then an hour drive to Las Cruces, NM at New Mexico State University. As an exchange to the New Mexico 4-H Council’s trip to SLC in January, we took part in their State Conference, which combines the PA idea of SLC and State Days. This was a great bonding experience for our team as well as a way to see a new culture. While there we experienced “real” Mexican food, learning to “two-step” (because that’s the popular way to dance), and saw lots of desert! The best part was meeting the New Mexico Leadership Team and seeing the differences in our 4-H programs. We arrived back in PA on the 18th.
Two weeks later we met at Penn State University for State Days, arriving two days early for our mid-year leadership training. Throughout the week we emceed Opening Ceremonies, the Talent Show, and Closing Ceremonies. We also met with staff from Penn State and toured the Pasquerilla Spiritual Center. I hope you all enjoyed your time at Penn State University and if you did not attend State Days you join us in 2010!
In my own area, I have been attending several events. On July 8th, I attended Teen Day Away with the Central Susquehanna Counties region, which was hosted by Union County. The event had a beach theme and included many water games. I have also done club visits with the Super Stitchers and Just Kidding Goat Clubs of Snyder County as well as schedule two more visits for August.
Enjoy the last few weeks of your summer and I look forward to meeting you at Ag Progress Days!

The Land Of Enchantment
Greetings from New Mexico!
At this year's State 4-H Leadership Conference, the New Mexico State 4-H Officer team visited Pennsylvania. We then had the opportunity to exchange and fly to the "Land of Enchantment" for the New Mexico State 4-H Conference. After three flights and an a brief car ride we arrived at The New Mexico State University! That evening we were welcomed by the New Mexico State 4-H Leadership Team over authentic Mexican cuisine at Si Senor's where we got to try green and red chili...delicious! Our first day was busy; helping to run a carnival and welcoming the New Mexico participants. The carnival consisted of an array of activities including pie throwing and a dunk booth which benefited cancer research. During the evening we participated in opening ceremonies. Speakers included Dr. Frank E. Hodnett and Rhett Laubach. Mr. Laubach motivated the crowd through his use of humor and experiences as a former 4-H member. Afterwards a themed dance sponsored by the State Officer took place.
This morning we participated in a New Mexico State University Campus scavenger hunt. This event was a challenge for us because we were very unfamiliar with the landmarks of the facility. The scavenger hunt turned out to me a lovely fast-paced tour of the scenery. Afterward we continued preparations for our Public Speaking workshop which we presented this afternoon. We provided information and educational activities for the participants to take back to their 33 counties and 7,000 4-H members. Currently we are waiting for the campaign speeches of the 2009-2010 Leadership Team to commence.
We look forward to enjoying the rest of our week here in New Mexico and we hope to see you at State Days in 2 weeks!
Sincerely,
The PA State 4-H Council

School is out and Graduation has past. Now begins the endless summer heat, campfires, and
4-H State Achievement Days! remember State Days is in July this year and you State Council has been planning out some last minute details, so "Rev Up" and come out and show off your skills.
This month of June included a Face to Face Council meeting at Penn State University on June 12th for Council. Also this month for me included Northwestern PA's Junior 4-H Camp, and MAAC.
At Camp I was a Senior Counselor so I presented a food workshop to go along with the theme, "AARRRRGH" (Pirates). I had the kids build a ship out of food and on their plates we created an ocean complete with fish and icebergs. At Camp we played a ton of games and sang songs. One song sticks out in my mind above all of them though, it was the Burrito song the New Mexico State Council taught us at State Leadership Conference 2009. The kids loved it because it was new and included food.
MAAC is the Mid-Atlantic Alliance of Cooperatives, and over the summer at Lock Haven University is a State Event that you have to be selected at a regional event to attend. This Cooperative Seminar teaches the basics of Cooperatives through having the kids form their "minicos" which are mini cooperatives. In their mini cooperatives they decide what products they will sell to the other scholars attending. They have to be creative because there is copetition among the minicos. At MAAC I was Scholar Staff. As scholar Staff we assisted Staff and anyone who needed our help and we did vespers and closing cermemonies. At the end of the week we had an amazing banquet and everyone reflected on their week as the scholars who were selected to go to NICE which is the National Event were called.
Remember State Days is coming up FAST so get packing and start planning on attending our State Leadership Conference in February!
Love and Peace
