Christian county 4-H is taking a step and getting things ready for their next year of the program. The next thing 4-H is looking at is their Ag Safety Week where 5th graders in the area will meet at the Christian County Fairgrounds and be taught safety measures for many different parts of agriculture. Alicia Gullidge, 4-H youth and development Coordinator at the U of I Extension said Ag Safety Day will be on September 29th, and since many of these kids could be going into an agriculture career field, it's important they are taught how to be safe.

The first week in October is another special week for 4-H where National 4-H week is taking place. Gullidge said this is the main week for 4-H sign-ups, learning what kids will be a part of the program, and what topics they'll be focused on.

4-H Enrollment will now be done electronically and for more information call 827-7246. Gullidge appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
