Travel Bug Race - Want to explore the planet vicariously and win a prize
along the way? Then don't miss the second-annual CYFERnet Travel Bug Race. This
month, youth and adult teams can start touring the globe via their Travel Bug: a
metal tag that allows contestants to follow their "hitchhiker" trinket.
Hitchhikers may include everything from silver
coins to plush penguins. A feature of Geocaching--the GPS-based adventure
game--contestants place their trinket in an official geocache, register online
and track their Travel Bug as it moves from cache to cache (i.e. logbook to
logbook, place to place) in the real world. The more miles your bug travels, the
greater your chances of winning!

The
National Collegiate 4-H Organization - has recently published their
new website:
http://www.collegiate4h.org.
Collegiate 4-H offers college students an experience after high
school of volunteering with 4-H youth, serving their communities, and growing as
a young 4-H volunteer leader. Collegiate 4-H is a nationwide program that can be
implemented at any college campus.
Collegiate 4-H's website helps in providing resources in starting or finding a
Collegiate 4-H club at any school (in any state!) and providing ideas for
providing leadership to county, local, and state 4-H programs.
Collegiate 4-H is open to all college students who wish to support youth and the
4-H program. It is not necessary to have prior 4-H experience, only to
have an interest in the 4-H ideals and in serving your community.
For more information about the Hancock County 4-H Program, please contact Jen Lobley, 4-H Youth Development Educator at 1-800-287-1542, email: jlobley@umext.maine.edu or Norma Hardison, 4-H Program Aide at 1-800-287-1479, email: normah@umext.maine.edu.
