AUSTIN — Registration is still open for the 4-H Regional Wildlife Field Day, to be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Sinnemahoning State Park Wildlife Center.
Members of 4-H ages 8 to 18 are invited for a day of hands-on activities designed to teach youth about healthy ecosystems, including the important roles of animals, plants, and aquatic habitats. Open to 4-H members across Pennsylvania, this fun, educational event includes four workshops taught by professional educators from the state Game Commission, Fish and Boat Commission, Potter County Conservation District, Penn State Extension, state parks and more.
The workshops of this event will prepare the youth for the final challenge. This “challenge” activity will ask participants to apply what they have learned throughout the day in order to navigate through the steps of solving a mock environmental incident and devise ways to raise awareness around environmental problems.
To register, call 814-486-3350 or email CameronExt@psu.edu. Participants must be registered in their county’s 4-H program to attend.
Participants should bring a lunch and a reusable water bottle and dress for the weather. This event will have both indoor and outdoor workshops.
For more information about this event, contact the Cameron County Penn State Extension office by calling 814-486-3350 or emailing CameronExt@psu.edu.
