CSU One Health Vet Science Camp will be hosted on CSU’s main campus from May 28–30 for 4-H members ages 11–18. Registration is through 4HOnline and is extremely limited. Registration opened on April 15.

The schedule is jam-packed with educational discussions from veterinary and animal science professionals, interactive activities, and exclusive tours of CSU’s veterinary medicine facilities. Outside of the fun, educational things that are planned, members will be staying in the campus dorms and will have a night to unwind at the recreation center on campus, giving these members a feel for what it is truly like to attend CSU.  

4-H members must attend with a 4-H approved chaperone and the chaperone must also sign up to attend.

We will be having a clothing construction workshop this Saturday, April 20th from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in the Timnath/Laporte rooms of the McKee 4-H Building. 

We will be sewing a pillowcase. You will need 1 yard of material (make sure it is at least 50% cotton) and thread to match. You will also need a sewing machine, or let me know if you need one and Cari can bring one from the extension office. Don’t forget a bobbin for your machine! You can bring your box of basic sewing items with you, too. We will have rotary cutters, mats, and irons for you to use. 

You are always welcome to bring your own project if you do not want to sew a pillowcase and we can help as needed. 

Let me know if you have any questions. Please RSVP to Hanna at pigs022002@yahoo.com and let her know if you are planning to be there.
