Logan
County 4-H members are moving forward with their monthly activities
in a virtual world. With the orders to shelter at home and avoid
gatherings, the clubs are holding their meetings via internet
applications such as Zoom. In April, the Atlanta Ag 4-H group held a
successful meeting conducting business as usual and then hearing a
special presentation on photography.
Members are busy preparing projects for exhibition later this summer
at the Logan County Fair. Should fairs be canceled, the University
of Illinois Extension and 4-H program is developing virtual exhibit
guidelines.
