Hi Wendy (and all)
I'm really sorry I missed the meeting.  I had some health issues, but I'm fine now and can't wait to help out🌻.  Wendy, I am a professional Voice Over Artist, and I would LOVE to help out with the narration!  I've actually done a V/O for the Leon County Extension Office so people can take a self- guided tour of our Demonstration Garden.  If I can find the link, I'll send it to you!

Discussions / Re: Encouraging Conference youth attendance.

« Last post by hlaurence on August 09, 2019, 04:29:39 PM »

The Palm Beach County Chapter does not have a formal program to encourage youth Conference attendance. We did sponsor an art exhibit of elementary school students’ work when Conference was in Miami. Several of our board members would like to see that continued. Other ideas from our board: we could work with area colleges that have programs that relate and perhaps offer some partial scholarships for selected students to attend the annual conference. We could be making contact with area colleges / professors in environmental studies to make sure they are aware of the annual conference as well as our meetings

The Palm Beach County Chapter does not have a formal mentoring program, and we are very interested in what other Chapters are doing. As for a definition of mentorship, Perhaps this falls under what we have wanted to do with our membership committee: in general greeting and speaking to all people coming to our monthly meetings to have them feel welcomed and giving new members a member packet.
Our chapter is partnering with Mounts Botanical Garden to maintain their native plant garden, and we reach out to our membership for volunteers for a monthly “Groom the Garden” work party. It’s a good learning opportunity, and snacks are provided!!
