Placer County 4-H Spirit Week, July 7th-14th, 2021 was created by this year's Placer County Ambassador Team! The Ambassadors put extensive thought into what they wanted to do for our 4-H members this year and a 4-H Spirit Week is what they came up with. Part of the County Ambassador's annual mission is to work on a project over the year. This year with limited in-person events the Ambassadors had ample time to think about what would help their county 4-H program despite the challenging year. Since we were all unsure when, how, or where exactly we would all be able to gather in-person again it was difficult to come up with a plan of action. Each day of the week was themed, with activities for all age groups!
Here is a recap on the activities that were offered:
The photos above, were just some of the photos turned in for Placer County 4-H Spirit Week. All 4-H members were able to participate in Placer County 4-H Spirit week virtually.
"I wanted to put together Placer County 4-H Spirit week to encourage people to participate in 4-H. This year has been difficult to participate, so finding a way for members of all ages and levels to participate and have a good time was important!" - Alex
"I was very excited to help but together the 2021 Placer County 4-H Spirit Week because I knew it would be a great way to help get 4-Hers involved in the program again. This past year has been very difficult for us all and participation has struggled as a result of it. But I knew that if we could do something fun for the youth, everyone would enjoy it and help us get back into 4-H events and activities again." - Myah
"I wanted to put together 4-H spirit week to give those maybe stuck at home something fun and exciting to do." - Margaret
