With school on the horizon, we are here for you, and more than ever we want to show the Community the many wonderful hats our 4-H Staff wear! If you have a favorite subject, we want to know about it, because our Aroostook County 4-H Staff are ready to deliver some STEM programs to a school near YOU! That\u2019s right, we will be reaching out to local schools to offer programming, curriculum, and our assistance to bring 4-H to your classroom. If you would like us to reach out to your school to offer our services, feel free to let us know, we would appreciate the feedback and recommendations. So get your backpacks, lunch boxes and thinking caps on, we might just see you this school year!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-5861\" src=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/aroostook\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2019\/08\/boyscamp20191-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"4 boys and female staff\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/aroostook\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2019\/08\/boyscamp20191-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/aroostook\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2019\/08\/boyscamp20191-105x70.jpg 105w, https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/aroostook\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2019\/08\/boyscamp20191-317x211.jpg 317w, https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/aroostook\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2019\/08\/boyscamp20191-423x282.jpg 423w, https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/aroostook\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2019\/08\/boyscamp20191.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 85vw, (max-width: 768px) 67vw, (max-width: 1024px) 62vw,300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Just For Boys Camp Highlights:\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Pirate Attack!<\/i> and<i> Boat Afloat!<\/i> were just two of the six programs Aroostook 4-H Staff had the opportunity to perform as\u00a0 Outreach programs for the <i>Just For Boy\u2019s<\/i> Camp this past July.
