The training conference is being hosted by Luci Davis, Alabama JMG State Coordinator and will be conducted by the National JMG Program staff. This dynamic and intensive 2 1/2 day training conference is designed for those coordinating or supporting JMG programs at the local, county, and regional level. This conference will serve to equip and empower attendees with a great familiarity with the JMG program, JMG curricula and will provide the tools to grow sustainable JMG programs. In addition to a comprehensive JMG program overview, the training conference will include presentations addressing current youth gardening research findings, successfully connecting to schools, growing successful partnerships, implementation of best practices, developing community support and keys to profitable fund-raising. Registration of $250 includes all training costs/materials, JMG Specialist Resource Notebook, meals, transportation to training location and two choices of JMG curriculum guides. More details are available from the front page of www.jmgkids.us Because we are only 2 months out from this training program, we'd like to get a quick distribution of this opportunity. Please forward to your Extension colleagues, and other county contacts that can make this info available to MG or 4-H volunteers that could be interested. The conference registration form is also attached. Thank you again - feel free to follow up if you have any questions, Randy L.
