4-H Youth Development

4-H Res-Q Program Offered to County Youth

Thirty students participated in the 4-H Res-Q program in Ferndale. Students were introduced to a few of the non-venomous reptiles and amphibians that inhabit Arkansas's forests, fields, streams and lakes. By learning the difference between venomous and non-venomous reptiles, the students were encouraged to develop positive attitudes and respect rather than fear and prejudice toward these unique creatures. Students also, explored the diverse indigenous animals that inhabit Arkansas' forests, fields and cities. As stewards and caretakers of the earth, students realized the important role and responsibilities they have toward the environment. Program was coordinated by Nikki Schaefer Family & Consumer Sciences Agent and sponsored by Woodruff County Soil and Conservation Office.
