Energy Express started Friday June 8 and runs through Friday August 3. Children's first day is July 2. The sites include: Buffalo Elementary, Ceredo-Kenova Elementary, Crum PreK-8, East Lynn Elementary, and Fort Gay PreK-8. Child applications are still being accepted.

Many thanks to Reality Store Volunteers

Vinson Middle School was host to a Reality Store on June 5, 2018. Reality Store is a financial simulation that allows students a glimpse into the future to see what bills, expenses and life in general will look like when they are 25 years old. This program requires over 20 volunteers and we would like to thank them for their dedication and commitment to this program!


Reality Store will reconvene with middle schools in the fall. Email Julie Tritz, 4-H Extension Agent, to learn about you can participate in this unique opportunity later this year.

County Judging Teams Recognized by County Commission

Our horse judging team, beef stockmen's team and forestry team were recognized by the Wayne County Commission this afternoon (not all team members could attend). The Wayne County Extension office extends many thanks to the Wayne County County Commission for their continued support of 4-H programs in our county!
