Jed’s Journal
Well crew, here we are once again at the brink of Fair Season! Just like
all the other seasons except better, right? I hope you are all as excited
for the Klamath County Fair as I am. I have had a chance to see or hear
of many of your projects throughout the winter and spring and they
certainly look and sound amazing. I know for those of you with
livestock this odd weather pattern we have experienced this year
brought with it a certain set of challenges but you have all met it head
on and produced great animals just the same. While we are all at fair
and around this summer let us all keep in mind to “make the best
better” and lend a hand to one another and really show the community
what 4-H is about. Let us also remember that this generosity and
belonging feeling needs be extended from our green and white to the
blue and gold of FFA as well. We are all there to show our wares and
have an enjoyable fair so let us work together for the best possible
result.
In the recent weeks I have had the pleasure of attending Summer
Conference 2011 as well as being the host for Swine Jeopardy. These
events help me to remember why 4-H is such a great program and why
we are all here; members, leaders, parents, staff alike. What a
wonderful group of young people Oregon 4-H, and Klamath County has
to represent us all.
The Swine Jeopardy event was an absolute blast! Our own Jordin
Scholer headed up the event for her senior project and a magnificent
job she did I must say. The amount of work that was put into the
project really shined through with the smoothness of operations and
the sheer enjoyment of all the participants and spectators alike.
Perhaps best of all there was a great deal of learning that took place
while we were all having fun, now that right there gang is what 4-H is
all about! 4-H’ers if you get a chance during fair to visit with Ms.
Scholer be sure and ask her about Swine Jeopardy, what all went into it
and what the purpose was and most of all thank her for bringing that
to Klamath County for us all. There is a type of 4-H’er that you may
hear me refer to from time to time and that is a 4-H’er of Character,

I look forward to seeing you all at fair; I will be looking for all of your
smiling faces. If you have questions, comments, concerns, or just want
to chat during our fair this year I am all ears for everyone!

Bonanza Manes & Reins and Amazing Saddles
Go On A Road Trip
By Hannah Ann Peterson, Bonanza Manes and Reins Reporter
On June 24, the Bonanza Manes and Reins and Amazing Saddles
4-H clubs went to Oregon State University to tour their Veterinarian
School and the OSU Horse Center. When we arrived at the vet school
we were greeted by two students from the school. They led us
throughout the school showing us where surgeries, rehabilitation,
research, and studying takes place. The girl that led my group was
really smart and she was able to answer lots of questions. One of our
members wants to go to OSU to be a vet, so she was able to get lots of
information. While on our tour we were able to see a dog being
operated on, and a baby llama that was only a week old, it had a
hernia. When the tour was about over we were able to meet Dr. Helen
Diggs, she is the attending veterinarian for Oregon State University,
and director of the University’s Laboratory Animal Resources Center.
She was really nice and she personally took us around to more areas of
the vet school. We were able to go out to where they keep the horses,
and also go into the building where the horse treadmill is. It was really
big and interesting, too!
After we left the vet school, we went to the OSU Horse Center.
We walked around and toured their facilities, and also learned that
students at OSU can take classes there. Our tour guide was very
enthusiastic about the program and said that anyone can take classes
there whether they have experience on a horse or not. OSU has an
equestrian team that travels to compete. The most interesting thing
that I learned was that the team does not take their own horse to the
competitions; they are assigned
a horse to ride.
As a first year member
of Bonanza Manes and Reins,
this was definitely an
experience that I will always
remember. I learned a lot and
so did the other 4-H members.

2011 Klamath County Fair Theme
Pre-Fair Record Book Check
This year, as with last year, record books will be a requirement for
participation in county fair. Keeping accurate records of your 4-H
project work is an essential element in the process of experiential
learning in all areas of 4-H programming. The skills you learn through
record keeping will benefit you greatly throughout life. For your
convenience, record books may be pre-checked this year at the
Extension Office from July 18-29. For those members in the dog, horse,
or home and family sciences projects I would suggest having your
books checked the first week of the time frame. If you choose not to
have your records pre-checked please have them with you when you
arrive at the fair office for dog fair, cat fair, horse fair, or small animals;
the check-in table for home and family sciences; and the scale for
livestock projects during your respective fair times.
The following elements will be required:


Fair Follow Up Meeting
The next All Leaders meeting will be the 19th of September, 2011. This
will be an important meeting to come to so that your comments and
suggestions on Klamath County Fair 2011 can be heard and move
forward for 2012. At this meeting we will also discuss where Klamath
County 4-H is headed for 2011-2012 4-H year. Again that is 7:00pm,
Sept 19, 2011.
National 4-H Science Experiment
The 2011 National 4-H Science Experiment is Wired for Wind, an indepth look at renewable energy technologies in the form of windpower. This three-tiered experiment will help 4-H young people to enhance their science, engineering, technology and applied math skills by
allowing them to:
 Design, build and test two different wind turbine
models,
 Experiment with variables by examining three
different blade pitch angles to determine the
effect of pitch on rotor speed,
 Relate their scientific experiences back to their
own lives by determining how their communities
can harness the power of wind and create a
more sustainable and clean energy system, and
 Determine the best location for a potential wind
farm in their state or local area by calculating
wind power and studying wind data and maps.
This year, 4-H National Youth Science Day will take place on
October 5, 2011.
Participation in 4-H National Youth Science Day is meant to help spark
an early passion for science, engineering and math and to encourage
young people to consider these paths of study and future careers.
To learn more about 4-H National Youth Science Day, how you can
participate locally, or to download program materials, go to

Extension Auditorium
3328 Vandenberg Road
We want to encourage each project area to plan to send an adult
volunteer and a youth member representative to help us greet the
public and share with them all that 4-H has to offer. We will need
volunteers to bring refreshments (such as cookies) and lots of people
who can answer questions about the program
and the project areas available. Please mark
this date on your calendar now before your
schedule gets too busy! If your schedule just
won’t allow you to be there but you still want
to participate, alternate ideas include making
a display about your project area or club,
helping distribute advertising flyers to
schools, or making refreshments. And, of
course, what we would really love is to see
your smiling faces making the public feel welcome!!

Where's that? That's the Capital Building in Washington DC!
Who's that? That's Congressman Greg Walden jumping off the Capitol
steps flanked by local 4-Hers (l to r: Brittany Eskildson, Abby Edmonds,
Kelsey Skinner, Megan Hurtado, and Carson Dentinger) on their 4-H
"Citizenship Washington Focus" trip to the nation's capitol in June.
How can I do that? Call the Klamath Extension Office at 541-883-7131.
Klamath County 4-H Enrollment
Here’s a heads-up that the enrollment deadlines will all take place
before the end of December 2011. There are a couple of reasons for
doing this, perhaps most important being that all members and leaders
working under the 4-H umbrella should be officially enrolled in the
program prior to attending club meetings and otherwise participating
in 4-H activities and this doesn’t always happen when the deadline is
more than three months into the 4-H year. We are also going to ask
the leaders to make sure their enrollment is complete earlier in the 4-H
year so that club paperwork isn’t held up for any reason. Deadline
dates will be announced in late August or September.
