Sun Journal reports on new student mentoring program at 4-H camp
Sun Journal reported a new long-term youth mentoring program is available to Telstar Regional Middle/High School students at the University of Maine 4-H Camp and Learning Center at Bryant Pond. Thanks to a grant from the Emanuel and Pauline A. Lerner Foundation, the North Star Program will provide community engagement, cultural awareness and adventure/leadership opportunities to Telstar students for the next six years, according to the article. On Tuesday, middle school students visited the 4-H camp to sample some of what North Star has to offer, including learning about other cultures by making traditional foods, gardening, and making cards for the the Valentine’s Day Project, which delivers cards to those without homes on Valentine’s Day, the article states.
