We also know that many of you are anxious to resume some form of participation and we want to try to make that happen.&nbsp;It is important to note this process will be gradual. All 4-H Volunteer led gatherings\/meetings will be small, for now that means 10 or less total people. They will also need to take place outside, or in a well-ventilated space like a barn or garage (not in homes). Face coverings will also be required for all people present (until there is six feet of social distance between participants).<\/p>\n<p>Please read the letters from Dean Hannah Carter for more information and be sure to familiarize yourself with news rules and regulations.&nbsp; If you have any questions, please reach out to Washington County 4-H Youth Development Professional, Brittany Foster, brittany.foster@maine.edu.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/plugged-in\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2020\/08\/Welcome-Back-4-H-Members-and-Families-1.pdf\"><span class=\"s1\">Family letter<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/plugged-in\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2020\/08\/Welcome-Back-Volunteer-1.pdf\"><span class=\"s1\">Volunteer letter<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/plugged-in\/return\/restarting-educational-programs\/\">Required checklists, processes and t<span class=\"s1\">raining materials<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a id=\"office\"><\/a>Office Protocol<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We are very pleased to tell you that the office is now open to the public Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to Noon, through the month of September.&nbsp; In order to keep everyone safe and healthy, we require that masks be worn and that we meet outside and social distance by staying six feet apart.
