Energy Express - First Day with Children
Today, July 2, was the first day with children at our five Energy Express sites in
Wayne County. The start day was later than the majority of sites across the state
due to the winter weather and work stoppage which pushed the last day of school
in Wayne County to late June. Energy Express has sites at Buffalo Elementary, Ceredo-Kenova
(C-K) Elementary, Crum Pre K-8, East Lynn Elementary, and Fort Gay Pre K-8. The
photo features members of the C-K Energy Express site team! Contact
Julie Tritz, 4-H Extension Agent and County Contact, to learn more.
Literacy at 4-H Older Camp
In an effort to support literacy and a love for reading, each youth that
attended 4-H Older Camp last week received a copy of Brave Companions: Portraits in American History. Many thanks to the Wayne County Commission for their
continued support of this initiative at 4-H Camp.
Brave Companions: Portraits in American History is written by acclaimed author David McCullough.
