Teen Leader Opportunities for Junior Conference

We are seeking certified teen leaders to serve in various leadership roles such as workshop instructors, community service leaders, or recreation leaders. Not only are Teen Leaders key to help make Junior Conference a success, this is also an excellent portfolio opportunity for high school aged 4-H'ers.
Teen leaders must commit to the entire weekend as they will have other duties in addition to their selected role. Selected teens must be certified Teen Leaders. No other teen leaders are allowed to attend Junior Conference. Unfortunately, due to scheduling conflicts, teen leaders may only apply to one teen leader opportunity. Clovers & Co. members are not able to apply.
 
Teen leader registration is $75.00/participant and includes Friday/Saturday lodging, Saturday Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner, and Sunday breakfast.
  • Workshop Instructor: Based on their application, selected teen leaders will teach a prepared workshop on the Georgia 4- H content area of Healthy Living. Workshop instructors will teach their assigned lesson four times throughout the weekend.
  • Recreation Leader: Based on their experience and hobbies listed on the application, selected teen leaders will be assigned to lead participants in various recreation options.
  • Community Service Leader: Selected community service projects should be easy to do in a short time frame and provide something for a group in need. Examples are letters to military families or 4-H donors, decorations for a senior center, caps for cancer patients, etc. Selected teen leaders must supply materials and may submit receipts to Jade Andrews Haston for reimbursement of supplies up to $30.00.
