A Nebraska 4-H Shooting Sports Leader Update Session is scheduled for early February in Lincoln. It will be held February 4th at the Nebraska Game & Parks Outdoor Education Center in Lincoln. The early bird deadline to register for the Update session is January 26th.
The time has come to provide an update for all Nebraska 4-H Shooting Sports Instructors who received their training in 2014 or before. Over the years there have been numerous curriculum changes, updates and additions, with some major curriculum adjustments in the last few years.
These Update Sessions are for adult or apprentice 4-H volunteer instructors who have previously attended a 4-H instructor training workshop in 2014 or prior years. These are an update for existing instructors, NOT a training for new instructors. You MUST be a currently enrolled Nebraska 4-H Shooting Sports volunteer leader in your county.
Discipline updates that will be offered during the evening include rifle, pistol, and archery. Instructors can only choose one of the offered disciplines.
There is a minimum number of participants needed to offer these disciplines at the session. Participants will learn under expert instruction from members of the Nebraska State 4-H Shooting Sports Training Team.
A paid registration fee by January 26th guarantees participant a spot at the session providing that the discipline session is not full. Early bird registration by January 26th is $25 for the session. Late registration fee, after January 26th, is $40. Fee includes program materials for the Update session. It does not include lodging or meal.
