Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the w88 online casino 4-H Youth Development Program has developed a variety of activities to continue to engage 4-H youth throughout the state as the school year begins and fall draws near.

“People are accustomed to us kicking off various 4-H programs around the beginning of the traditional school year, and despite COVID-19, we are still getting a lot of inquiries about afterschool programs, as well as clubs and other 4-H activities,” explained Carrie Stark, w88 online casino 4-H Program director with Extension. “Our staff and volunteers are working incredibly hard to constantly build and adapt programs to serve our youth, as COVID-related restrictions are a bouncing ball, changing regularly.”

A number of statewide and local w88 online casino will be offered

The w88 online casino will be offered in person, virtually or as a hybrid of the two, depending on local restrictions and health conditions.

The Center for Urban Water Conservation, a collaborative demonstration orchard between Extension and University of w88 online casino, Las Vegas, is creating a beekeeping program for the local community.

M.L. Robinson, an assistant professor and horticulture specialist with w88 online casino, is overseeing the program and developing educational materials and resources.

The ultimate goal is to have training classes for anyone in the community interested in beekeeping. The program will teach participants the entire process of beekeeping, including setting up the hives, upkeep of the hives and bees, and harvesting. The Center has already used these hives to train veterinarians and assistants on working with bees, and volunteers are excited to extend that knowledge to the local community.

Expanding knowledge for w88 online casino

"We want to make sure that those interested in beekeeping have the opportunity to learn this skill. This program is a great learning opportunity, and it’s always exciting to have fresh local honey on hand as well." -Associate Professor & w88 online casino Specialist M.L. Robinson

w88 online casino is excited to welcome Hayley Maio to the office in southern Clark County - Laughlin as an w88 online casino educator.

As an educator, Maio will be focusing on program development in Laughlin, including the development of health and nutrition programs for both Extension’s w88 online casino 4-H Youth Development Program and seniors in the community. Although COVID-19 restrictions have temporarily halted most of the in-person activities for these groups, Maio hopes to set up new programs that will be offered in the near future. Her goal, since accessibility to affordable and fresh food is limited for some in Laughlin, is to bring affordable and easily accessible healthy living, nutrition and exercise programs to the community’s youth and elderly.

“I love working with w88 online casino because I want to make a positive impact with everyone I come in contact with, and I believe this is the best place to make that happen,” Maio said. “I want to make sure that, through the programs we’re offering, we can help individuals become the best versions of themselves.”

Expanding health and nutrition for w88 online casino

"Hayley brings enthusiasm and excitement to southern Clark County, and we look forward to the expansion of programs she is developing." -w88 online casino Southern Area Director Eric Killian

Established by the Alpers Family Trust in March 2020, this endowment will provide support for our College.

Tim Alpers ’71 received his degree in agriculture, specializing in renewable natural resources. He also minored in business administration and was a member of the Wolf Pack freshmen basketball team in the 1966-67 season.

The strong educational foundation Tim received while attending the University helped him achieve his goals to develop a state-of-the-art wilderness trout farm in Mammoth Lakes, California; become an NCAA Division 1 college basketball coach; and serve as a local elected official for 14 years.

Through this endowment, Tim and his wife, Pam, want to help ensure as many w88 online casino as possible have superior educational opportunities while maintaining agriculture’s vitality.

Building a legacy with the power to change lives

When you create an endowment, you build a permanent resource that makes a difference now and for generations to come.
