2022-2023 Re-Enrollment Process<\/strong>
\nThere is a new option available for families for the new 4-H Year. Starting October 1st<\/sup>, families will have the ability to log into their account and complete their re-enrollment, as well as all required forms, online. If you were enrolled for the 2021-2022 year, you can simply visit: https:\/\/4h.zsuite.org\/<\/a> – click \u201cForgot Password?\u201d and complete the prompts using the email address you receive your 4-H communications to. There is a help menu that offers step-by-step instructions in the system, as well as live chat for questions. You are also welcome to reach out to your county staff or to the State Office at 4-H@maine.edu<\/a>. If you would prefer to continue to complete paper forms, they can be found online at: https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/4h\/volunteers\/forms\/<\/a> or by reaching out to your county office.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Independent Member Clubs!
\n<\/strong>This fall county offices are piloting a new club specifically for independent 4-H members. This is a space for youth to come together and build relationships with their peers. We will share interests, projects, goals, and plans for the year and then reflect on our learning throughout and at the end of the year. This is also a great place to start if you are a new or recently enrolled independent member. We will meet 3 times throughout the year as a group with county staff. This will be a space for youth to foster friendships with peers and possibly come together to work on projects of similar interests. We are even hoping to get the group to brainstorm common interests and work together on a community service project! Somerset and Aroostook counties are both holding meetings in December.<\/p>\n

Register here<\/a>! Meetings can be attended either in person or virtually and will be open to all ages. Dates based on county\/region.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sessions are free of charge, but require registration. Some sessions have limited space. Visit the 4-H Volunteer Calendar of Training Opportunities<\/a> to learn more and register! <\/p>\n

EFNEP Recipes: Welcome to Winter
\n<\/strong>December is here and winter has begun! With it, there are plenty of celebrations and festivities as we say goodbye to another year. Sharing food with family and friends is a big part of this time of year, and many of us have traditions that include special recipes and treats. While many often think of special holiday foods, how many of us think of special holiday drinks? Our friends at Michigan State Extension have shared these great Healthy Hot Drink Recipes<\/a>, and curling up with a nice warm drink and a cookie (try our Oatmeal Raisin Cookie<\/a>, Gingerbread Cookie<\/a>, and Carrot Cookie<\/a> recipes!) is a great way to spend part of a December day. We wish you all the happiness of the season!<\/p>\n
