Fantastic Cecil Attendance at the Maryland 4-H Volunteer Forum
Kudos to our University of Maryland Volunteers and Teens that attended the Maryland 4-H Volunteer Forum in Ocean
City on November 20-22, 2015. All that attended seemed to have an enjoyable time.
Breakfast with Santa & Holiday Craft Workshop Thank You
A thank you goes to the Camp and Junior Council 4-H members and volunteers that helped to conduct the Holiday Craft
Workshop on Saturday, December 5, 2015. Over fifty youth and adults participated in the morning’s workshop.
Everyone who attended seemed to have a great time. They also held a fun activity in the morning, hosting a Breakfast
1
with Santa for families to come and meet St. Nick even complete with picture opportunities. Thanks again for your hard
work and dedication to our program!
4-H Benefit Auction Thank You
The Eleventh Annual Cecil County 4-H Benefit Auction proved to be very successful! The live and silent auction raised
over $11,000 for the County and Club 4-H programs in Cecil County. There were over 120 registered buyers for the
auction. A BIG THANKS goes to all the clubs, volunteers and youth that gathered donations for the auction and
purchased items at the auction. Also, thanks goes to the 4-Hers who modeled the auction items during the sale. In
addition, we would like to thank our volunteers and teens that helped with wrapping, moving and organizing auction
items, facility set up and clean up and the volunteers that helped during the auction to make it run smoothly. At the event,
a fun time was had by all. Without the support of our wonderful community, the auction would not have been as
successful as it was. The turn out and profits confirm that the community is behind the 4-H youth development program
in Cecil County.
Reenrollment Deadline
This is your last issue of 4-H Talk if we have not received your 2016 Reenrollment/Enrollment. In order to get project
information and keep up with all the 4-H news and events, be sure to turn in your 2016 4-H enrollment form now!

University of Maryland Extension’s 4-H Youth Development Program 2016 4-H Participation Fee
Again in 2016, each 4-H club member will be required to pay the annual $10 participation fee which equals $.83 cents per
month. These funds will be used to sustain 4-H programming across the state of Maryland. University of Maryland’s 4-H
Youth Development Program is committed to continuing the long standing tradition of providing excellent 4-H programs
for Maryland’s youth. Members can pay their fee to their primary club. If you belong to more than one club members only
need to pay the fee to their primary club. Cecil County 4-H has already started collecting the fees and the fee will be due
no later than June 15th so that membership cards can be issued to those in good standing. The fee is only for 4-H youth
members ages 8-18 as of 1/1/16. There is no fee for clover members (ages 5-7 as of 1/1/16) or UME 4-H volunteers.
Maryland 4-H Ages for 2016
As we start the 2016 4-H project year we wanted to remind you of the Maryland 4-H ages.

Cecil County 4-H Record Books
Completing a record book is not something most 4-Hers think of as fun but it can be one of the most
important things you do in 4-H. Learning to keep good records of the work you do is something that will
help you in school and may lead to a successful career, plus more. Record Books will be due to the
Extension Office by January 22, 2016 by 7:00 p.m. Your 4-H record book must be signed by your leader
prior to submission the county level, so please make those arrangements well ahead of the due date. Any
book submitted without a leader’s signature will not be accepted. Record books can be either typed or hand written.
Forms are available online at our website, http://extension.umd.edu/cecil-county/4-h-youth/record-keeping or in paper
form from the Extension Office. As a reminder we started using the new State Animal Specific Forms last year and
those will be the ONLY Animal Forms that will be accepted in 2016. Please do not use the Cecil County 4-H
Market Animal and Non-Market Animal Forms but use the specific species forms that the State developed. A
record book workshop will be held on Tuesday, January 5, 2016 at 6:30 PM in the Cecil County Extension Office, Elkton.
Please RSVP your attendance by the day of the workshop. Record Book covers are available to be purchased from the
Extension Office for $3 each.

Maryland Animal Health Requirements 2016
The complete Maryland health regulations and forms will be available in early January online at
http://mda.maryland.gov/animalHealth/Pages/Fairs-Shows.aspx
7
One new change in 2016: In-State Health papers will be good for only 90 days from the date issued not the entire show
season like in past years. Out-of-State Health papers will continue to be good for only 30 days from the date issued which
is not a change.
Again this year-All animals except Rabbits will need to have an official identification. In most cases, this means the
animal will have to be identified using an official USDA or MD tag that is associated with a registered premise. Health
certificates will be three carbon copy pages and again will no longer need to be stamped by MDA as it will be your
veterinarian’s responsibility to send the approved copy to MDA to be filed. Exhibitors will still be expected to do the
Animal Health Self-Certification for Livestock, Poultry, Rabbits and Horses. If your animal requires vaccinations, they
should be vaccinated at least 15 days prior to the first show so that the vaccinations are effective.
