As our volunteers re-enroll, please remember that the child abuse and safety training is only good for 2 years. Most of our volunteers are due for renewal. Once you re-enroll the office will send a letter notifying you once you re-enroll if you need to take the training (this letter is only sent once volunteer renewal is complete through 4HOnline). Volunteer enrollment can not be approved unless the training is current, or until the training is taken. If you have any questions, please contact the Extension Office as we are keeping track of who is due. The training can be completed online through 4HOnline and directions will be included with the letter that is sent to you. We will also offer 2 days to do the training at the office: ·   January 4th at 7 PM during the 4-H Council Meeting ·   January 22nd at 7 PM during the Fairboard Meeting
