Weeks 5-6 at Meade County

Learning about general safety during Spin the Bottle



Working through problems at Physics Zoo

Last week was State Teen Conference, and we had a wonderful group of delegates from Meade County!  As a 4-Her, Teen Conference was one of my favorite 4-H activities, and it was great seeing the opposite side of a program I enjoyed as a teen.  During the week I helped out with my supervising agent’s track, Spin the Bottle, and participated in two workshops: Cupcake Wars and Physics Zoo. The week was really enjoyable and went really smooth. I even had the opportunity to get to know some of the agents from our district better during the county night out during conference.

Camp shirts

One of the adult leaders and his weeks worth of TP

When we got back in the office on Monday it was time to prepare for camp.  This past week was full of paperwork, t-shirt labeling, and dividing up supplies for the cabins.  We had our Camp Leader training for the adults and teens, as well as our final camp orientation.  Since we had a little extra time, we got to do a couple of ice breaker activities with our camp leaders.  We played the game where you take as much toilet paper as you'd need for camp and then have to say something about yourself for each square.  Some of our leaders took a little TOO much!  On Friday, me and Carole spent the day in Louisville, shopping for snacks, cleaning supplies, and craft supplies for a couple of upcoming day camps.

Even though these past couple weeks were really busy, there isn’t much to blog about- just a lot of hands on organizational work.  It’s hard to believe I’ve completed the first half of my internship, it feels like I’m just getting started still!
