4-H Friday Friends summer program

The University of Idaho Extension Office and Boundary County 4-H is thrilled to announce the continuation of their 4-H Friday Friends program throughout the summer of 2017!

For the past 10 years, 4-H Friday Friends has taken place on Fridays at the middle school during the school year. Our after school program offers a safe and educational environment for children grades kindergarten through sixth.

Participants learn about math, science, history, arts and crafts, and community service through games, projects, special guest speakers, and the occasional field trip. The summer program will be run much the same way with the exception of the use of the middle school.

The summer schedule will consist of activities at the fairgrounds, the Kootenai Wildlife Refuge, and Snow Creek Pond. A complete schedule of our activities is available on our Facebook page (4-H Friday Friends), at the extension office, and at the elementary school offices.

Our summer programming will take place every Friday from June 16, until August 11, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.. The cost is $12 per child each Friday, however a sliding fee scale is available.

To register your child, call or stop by the extension office and sign your child(ren) up for the dates they wish to attend. Please register your child at least 2 weeks prior to the dates they wish to attend. The Boundary County Extension Office is located at 6447 Kootenai Street in Bonners Ferry.
