Attention! The Early Bird registration discount of $75 has been extended 30 days, up to and including Friday, September 10, 2010. Our online form for credit card registrations has been adjusted to reflect the new deadline. The printed material may say August 10, but rest assured all entries received or postmarked by Sept. 10 will get the discount.
We realize that in these challenging economic times, saving up for special events can be difficult. We want to give every opportunity we can to our 4-H volunteers so they can experience all that a weekend forum like this can offer.
Please help us extend our forum's invitation to everyone! We urge you to contact your fellow leaders, friends and colleagues to attend and experience the fellowship, education and fun of a 4-H weekend. Remember, this forum is a perfect introduction for someone in your town or state that is thinking of becoming a 4-H leader.
We know times are tough - but as a dedicated 4-H leader, you deserve this!
We continue to look for local, regional and national sponsors to help keep costs low. We are very proud that we have kept the registration fees constant, and in many cases lower. Eight meals await, beautiful seaside vistas, the aroma of brine as you stride the boardwalk, the quaint towns of Rehoboth and Lewes are all worth the trip in and of themselves. When you add the terrific tours, workshops and total 4-H experience, which includes first class treats from the First State, we know you will agree...you can't put a price on the experience or the tradition of a weekend long 4-H Northeast Volunteer Forum.

Meet Miss Delaware Kayla Martell, Friday Nov. 5
We have a very special guest slated for Friday!
Delaware 4-H is very pleased to announce that Kayla Martell, 2010 Miss Delaware will be joining us Nov. 5 for our lighted Walk for Joy along the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk.
You may have seen Kayla in the news lately! After winning Miss Delaware, Kayla has garnered a lot of attention for her platform, Alopecia Areata. With appearances on Fox & Friends, CBS Morning Show, ABC's 20/20 and a profile in People Magazine, just to name a few, Kayla's poise and confidence has consistently shown through, with or without her hair! Kayla freely credits 4-H as a significant factor in building her confidence. Kayla's connections with 4-H are featured on 4-H.org's news site

Despite having Alopecia Areata, Kayla is abundantly and obviously healthy! Yet her personal experiences have connected her to those who have lost their hair as a result of chemotherapy treatments. Men, women and children going through this treatment often suffer with self-esteem issues. Generous with her time and by sharing her experiences, Kayla is a positive role model and testament that real and lasting beauty resonates from within.
We are honored that Kayla will join us in raising cancer awareness with our walk for Joy. And like you, we are proud to have her as a member of our 4-H family.
