A new face has been leading Door County 4-H since early April and she is bringing plenty of experience to your local club. Extension UW-Madison announced earlier this week that Candis Dart has been serving as the 4-H Coordinator for Door County since April 3rd. The role has been vacant since Dawn VandeVoort took a role with the state 4-H office last fall. The Southern Door resident is no stranger to serving youth, previously working for the United Way of Door County’s Partnership for Children and Families and as a 4-H Educator for Purdue University Extension in Indiana. Dart says she is excited to take on a role for an organization that means a lot to her.
Dart will hit the ground running as 4-H clubs start gearing up for the Door County Fair occurring in August. She also hopes to help grow the county's Cloverbud project, which is available for all kids in kindergarten, first grade, and second grade. Door County 4-H will host its annual Small Animal Swap this Saturday beginning at 8 a.m. at the Door County Cooperative Country Store.
