In 2002, the 4-H movement celebrates its <br />Centennial as one of America's premier youth development organizations. 4-H is <br />commemorating the event by organizing - as a gift to the nation - conversations <br />that will bring together our nation's youth, youth development professionals, <br />parents, school, and community voices to increase the efforts in youth <br />development. <br /> <br />We are hosting a series of events across the state that will listen to youth and <br />adults and involve them in identifying actions they must take in order to create a <br />better future for the youth of this country. This event presents an outstanding <br />opportunity to create bold, innovative partnerships for the benefit of young <br />people. Each agency and organization brings specific strengths to such a <br />conversation. <br /> <br />To kick-off this effort, we are hosting an event on December 1 at Faith <br />Community Lutheran Church in Zimmerman. The church is located just south of <br />Zimmerman on the west side of Highway 169. We invite representatives from <br />your agency to join us on this historic event. Please encourage youth to <br />participate. Following this event, a copy of the results will be shared with you. <br /> <br />We look forward to seeing you on December 1. We ask that you call (763) 241- <br />2720 or e-mail if you are able to attend. <br /> <br />Sin9erely, <br /> <br />Harlan Rosendahl <br />Extension Educator <br />Coordinating Committee <br /> <br />University of Minnesota, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and Minnesota Counties Cooperating <br /> <br /> <br />
