Lebanon 4-H' ers Attend
Citizen-Washington Focus
LEBANON—Jennifer Allwein
and Enc Funk, Lebanon, attended
Citizenship-Washington Focus a
week-long experience in citizen
ship and leadershipjraining at the
National 4-H Center in Washing
ton, D.C., earlier this month.
Jennifer and Eric are two of 46
4-H members from Pennsylvania
selected to attend. The program is
designed to help young people
understand the structure and func
tion of our government, country
heritage and the ‘importance of
active citizen participation. Nine
states were represented.
Using the nation’s capital as
“classroom,” the program
included a day on Capitol Hill to
meet with members of Congress
and see government in action. On
the visit to Capitol Hill they met
with Rep. Robert Walker. The
Pennsylvania delegation also met
with Senators Arlen Specter and
John Heinz, 111.
Field trips to historical and cul
home economist Lon Waltz pre
sented a video look at how fashion
happens, and Linda Siegel, former
Lebanon County 4-H agent, dis
cussed competition and stress.
The guests’ program offered
several workshops, including,
“Sew What’s New,” by Sally Mill
er, master clothing and textiles
volunteer from Adams County;
and “You be the Judge,” by Wendy
Hamilton, 4-H youth specialist
with Penn State University.
Participants modeled their gar
ments in a fashion show in the
afternoon.
The County Dairy Bowl Teams are
coached by Sue Wemer.
The three Regional contests are
crucial in preparing 4-H’ers for
state level competition to be held
during Penn State 4-H Week,
August 3 to 6, at Penn State Uni
versity. The week’s activities will
feature recognition of 4-H’ers
demonstrated activities, leadership
training, opportunities for cultural
and intellectual enrichment, per
spective on current concerns of
young people, and challenge to
4-H’ers skills and knowledge.
tural sites as well as to federal
agencies and community organiza
tions were among the most infor
mative and exciting parts of the
week for the 4-H’ers. Some of the
interesting field trips included a
night view of Washington, visits to
various agencies and organiza
tions, Capitol Hill Day, Kennedy
Center, and the United States Navy
Yard to view the summer cere
mony of pageantry and precision.
They also enjoyed an evening at a
Washington, D.C. dinner theatre.
In workshop sessions at the
National 4-H Center, the young
people discussed contemporary
issues and concerns, and ways in
which skills and knowledge gained
during the week can be applied to
the 4-H program here in Lebanon
County.
For Jennifer and Eric, one of the
best parts of the experience was the
opportunity to share ideas with
other 4-H members from across
the country.
