Fridays (April 13th – May 15th) at 3:30 p.m. – 4-H World Changers for Middle School Girls and Everyone (Online) – In 4-H, we believe in the power of young people. Through self-chosen projects, kids are paired with mentors and given opportunities to lead. These projects and experiences bring out their potential, their passions, and their drive to help others as we empower them to become true leaders. What better way to help close the gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics than to join the movement to change the image of what a programmer or scientist looks like and does. Register here; you will need to register for each session you plan to attend.

May 20 at 12 noon – Can You Dig It? Virtual Gardening Series (Online) – Join OSU Extension Agriculture and Natural Resources Educator Tim McDermott as he equips you with great tips for the upcoming growing season, including gardening techniques, soil preparations, seed starting, and more.
