Project

Achievement…

What’s that???

Project Achievement

is one of the core

programs of Georgia

4-H. The whole reason it exists is to help

students get an early start on a successful

future and cultivate their personal interests!

Project Achievement teaches a student

to invest time learning about things they are

interested in and focusing activities so that

one day they can have their “dream job”.

Project Achievement is one of most

exciting, challenging and rewarding contests

offered by Georgia 4-H. 4-H’ers choose a

project area of interest, research a topic, then

write and present an oral presentation for the

judges. For Cloverleaf 4-H’ers (students in

grades 4-6), this process is about hands on

learning, self confidence, and sharing

knowledge.

We will be offering workshops every

Monday starting Jan 27th from 5:30-7 PM at

the College of Coastal GA and 2 full day work-

shops at our office Feb 17th & 18th. WE ARE

HERE TO HELP YOU! The contest will be held

on March 14th in Alma.

AND, everyone who participates gets

placed in a drawing for $100 off of camp fees!

Contact us at the office for more information!

Parents: Stay informed! Join our Facebook Group by searching for “Camden County Georgia 4-H” and asking to join the group. You can also stay informed by texting “@cl4hcc” to the number 81010. Watch for our monthly newsletters for upcoming opportunities!

SERVICE OPPORTUNITES:

2. SAVE THOSE CAN TABS! We will be col-

lecting can tabs thru March. Bring your
