Welcome to 4-H
EDGE Weekend! We are very pleased to bring this opportunity to
our Maine 4-H members and parents. There are two ways
parents and other adults can participate in this year's EDGE. Attend a day-long set of tours, panels, and informational
sessions to learn more about how to support your child on their
road to college. Register to be a chaperone. Or do
both…. And ride the bus! We will transport you between your
hotel and the University!

Volt Trained Chaperones
Needed!
In order to
make sure everyone has a safe and fun time at the 4-H EDGE
weekend, we are asking for 6-8 volunteers to help chaperone
this event. Volunteers will not need to pay the
registration fee. Chaperones will arrive with the youth on
May 15, sleep in the residence hall, and stay until the end
of the program on May 16. You will have a choice of
attending the parent sessions (sign up above) or attending
assigned workshops as a chaperone. We ask that chaperones
attend different workshops than their children.
If we have
more volunteer chaperones than needed, we will try to make
sure we have a geographic distribution. We will notify you
either way by the first of May.
Chaperones
will receive an information packet with chaperone guidelines
before EDGE weekend and we are planning a tele-conference
training before you come. Thanks!!
I would be
willing to act as a chaperone for 4-H EDGE Weekend
