Maine has a rich history of mineral mining, especially in the western part of the state. Currently sand and gravel are the principal resources being mined, but granite and slate are also extracted. In certain parts of the state limestone and gemstones are mined successfully. <a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/4h\/stem-toolkits\/minerals-gems\/\">The Minerals and Gems 4-H Science Toolkit<\/a> was developed to introduce youth to these geologic resources. The toolkit contains eleven experiential learning activities and includes samples of minerals and gems found in Maine. Youth will explore those minerals and gems using standard identification methods and tools (such as hardness and streak). Youth will explore the structure of those minerals, and will learn where in Maine minerals are found \u2013 and why! This Maine 4-H Toolkit was created with the generous support of the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum. Learn more about this, and other 4-H STEM Toolkits <a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/4h\/stem-toolkits\/\">online<\/a>, where you can see what is available for different age groups or topic areas.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Maine 4-H Dairy Team Earns Blue Ribbons at\u00a0The Big E<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>On Friday, Sept 17, and Saturday, Sept 18th, Maine sent four 4-H Dairy members down to The Big E to compete against other New England states in a newly formatted set of competitions. The day started with the 4-H Dairy Quiz Bowl Contest and ended with two 4-H Dairy cooking competitions, Grilled Cheese and Extreme Milkshake. The Maine Quiz bowl Coach (and Chaperone) Wendy Landry helped the team prepare for the event in the months prior. The four youth members, Owen B. from Penobscot County, Ali L. from Cumberland County, Jillian S. from Cumberland County, and Kat L. from Cumberland County won first place in the 4-H Dairy Quiz Bowl Contest. All team members take a written General Knowledge test before the team competitions, scores are used to seed the teams for the buzzer rounds. Maine 4-H member Kat Leach received High-Scoring Jr., and team member Jillian S. received High-Scoring Sr. in the written exams. Owen, Jillian, and Ali also took home the 1st place for their grilled cheese sandwich which consisted of extra sharp cheddar cheese, colby jack cheese, grilled chicken, bacon, and ranch dressing on homemade sourdough bread.\u00a0 In addition, Kat and Owen received 1st place for their entry into the Extreme Milkshake completion. The recipe included 100% Maine ingredients, locally made vanilla ice cream, fresh blueberry milk, whoopie pies, and blueberry cake and topped with a lobster lollipop.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Plan Your College of Engineering Enhanced Visit<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sign up online through the Admissions Office to attend a College of Engineering Enhanced Visit!\u00a0 Each Friday, the tour starts at 10:00 am and ends at 12:00 pm.
