Our Shooting Sports leaders are preparing for the 2019 4-H year, and one order of business is reviewing the Larimer County 4-H Shooting Sports Handbook. We’d appreciate it if Shooting Sports Leaders and 4-H families reviewed the handbook and submitted questions and suggestions. You can find the 2018 Handbook here.
Please email your feedback to Cindy Buckardt.
Thank you!
The October meeting of the Shooting Sports leaders in Larimer County 4-H will be held on Thursday, October 18 at 6:30 p.m. at the McKee Building.
We will discuss a few follow-up items from the September meeting and then we will revise the Shooting Sports Handbook for the upcoming 2019 4-H year.
Invite your friends to the 4-H Open House on Monday, October 8 from 5:30–7:30 p.m. at the McKee Building. They’ll learn more about 4-H and projects, including Shooting Sports.
Due to an unforeseen situation, the Outdoor Skills Field Trip to Rocky Mountain National Park has been canceled for this Saturday, September 29. We are not planning on rescheduling the trip for this year.
Colorado 4-H Shooting Sports Ambassadors represent 4-H and specifically 4-H Shooting Sports for public relations purposes at special events such as donor/supporter functions and with the general public, peer groups, 4-H groups, community service groups, schools, and media contacts. They serve as spokespersons for the 4-H Shooting Sports program, helping to make 4-H and the 4-H Shooting Sports programs more visible. The ambassadors further develop their skills in leadership, public presentation, citizenship, community service, public relations, and team building.

Jackie Easthouse would like to invite anyone interested or currently enrolled in the Outdoor Skills project to join in on a field trip to Rocky Mountain National Park on Saturday, September 29.
We will take a hike and then sit and watch the elk bugle until dark. It will be very busy, so we suggest carpooling. If there is enough interest we can check into renting a 12-passenger van. Meet in the parking lot of the Kmart in Loveland on Highway 34 at 9:00 a.m.
This will be an all-day outing. Please pack a picnic lunch and dinner along with snacks and lots of water.
Please RSVP to jackie@coloradoinmotion.com or send a text to 303-548-6433. Please include the number of people attending and if you will need a ride.
You must fill out and sign this consent form and bring with you on September 29 (http://tinyurl.com/yd4golbz).
If parents are not attending, please fill out this health form and bring it as well (http://co4h.colostate.edu/resources/health.pdf).
If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact Jackie.
