Maine 4-H Program

 

B.2.4  Contacting Other 4-H Groups 

If you or your members want to contact another 4-H club or program, for example, to answer a question or to invite their members to your club or county events, it's a good idea to check with your county Extension office first.  As you are aware, the leadership of clubs may change for a variety of reasons, and we can tell you who the current contact person is.

Occasionally, across the state, we have dismissed a 4-H volunteer for violating the "Standards of Behavior" that all 4-H volunteers and staff sign.  It can be an embarrassment for all involved if one of these people is contacted when they are no longer "in good standing" as a 4-H volunteer.  So please check in with the Extension office to make sure your contact person is a current 4-H volunteer.
