Returning closer to normal does not mean you cannot bring the 4-H experience into your home. 4-H Educators in Brown, Door, and Kewaunee counties are bringing back its “Explore 4-H” program for the second year in a row. The six-week experience not only has participants doing activities every week similar to what area clubs might do, it also introduces 4-H to kids who may not be participating yet or does not feel comfortable with meeting in person. Door County 4-H Educator Dawn Vandevoort says even though the program is meant to be held face-to-face, there should not be a barrier for people wanting to participate.
Vandevoort admits she is not sure what the guidance will be if case counts continue to rise after being able to host in-person meetings only within the last few months. She does know that thanks to some of the virtual opportunities they introduced last year that they will be ready for anything. Door County 4-H opened its enrollment period on September 1st.
