4-H CLUB REPORTER
General Duties: The club reporter informs the community about your club’s
activities. The reporter does this by writing news stories about the club and sending them to local newspapers and radio stations. The reporter can arrange to have announcements about meetings and club events published in the Community Calendar section of the local newspaper and in school newspapers, and can post announcements on community bulletin boards. There are lots of options to publicize! Local public access television stations can also be helpful – oftentimes they are happy to film local events. Be sure to coordinate club publicity with the vice president for membership because stories and announcements can attract new members.
