Delaware 4-H State Teen Conference
Dear Delaware 4-H Teen:
A committee made up of your Delaware 4-H State Teen Council officers has been busy diligently working on the upcoming State Teen Conference. The officer team has designed a fun-filled weekend, and you are invited.
Join other 4-H members from throughout the state for a meaningful weekend
at the 2020 Delaware 4-H State Teen Conference, "Saddle up with 4-H!”
The conference will be held Saturday, February 8, through Sunday, February 9, 2020. Accommodations are being provided by the UD Courtyard Marriott Hotel in Newark. The total cost to attend conference is $100; however, many 4-H members will qualify for a 50 percent discount through your county Junior Council and Leaders Associations. These organizations have graciously agreed to offer these funds again this year to support this program, provided youth meet the minimum requirements of participation. Prior to registering, please contact your county office to confirm if you received the 50 percent discount. Included in the registration fee is lodging, three meals, a ticket to the UD ice hockey game, educational workshops, and a visit to the recreation center and pool at the Carpenter Sports Building. Participants are also invited to a western-themed dance and snack party on Saturday evening following the ice hockey game.
For weather and safety issues, all Sussex and Kent County attendees are required to ride the bus to the event. Pick up and drop off locations will be at the Kent and Sussex County Extension offices. Four members of the Delaware 4-H staff will chaperone this event.
Registration will only be accepted online beginning in mid-December. Credit card payments will be accepted online, or you may choose to send a check for the appropriate amount made payable to "University of Delaware". All attendees must be enrolled in 4-H Online for the 2019-2020 program year and have a valid health form on file. The final day to register for the conference is Friday, January 24, 2020.
Additional details, including the schedule and registration information, will be posted to the Delaware 4-H webpage. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call me directly at (302) 831-2997. I hope that you are able to join us on February 8 and 9 for this wonderful opportunity to learn with your Delaware 4-H family.
Yours in 4-H,
C Douglas Crouse, State 4-H Program Leader
