What Do TEEA Members Do?
Participate in monthly club meetings and enjoy fun and fellowship while they learn. In addition to caring for any necessary business at monthly meetings, an educational program is presented by the Extension Agent, a trained leader or guest speaker. Topics include anything the group wants to learn about.
Become trained leaders through workshops and educational opportunities offered at the county, state and even the national level. The County Extension Agent regularly conducts "leader training" for club members, who, in turn, present the lesson to their respective club members.
Attend District, State, National and International Conferences where they meet people from other locales with a common interest in strengthening families. Workshops and educational seminars are presented at these events.
Support Extension Educational Programs. Some Club members have joined other educational projects such as Master Gardeners, Master Clothing Volunteers and Master Money Management Volunteers. They use this additional training to become community educators.
Club members also support 4-H, the youth development program of Extension. Club members may lead project groups or serve as judges for contests. Extension Education Clubs provides scholarships for 4-H members: 7 at the state level, one at the district level, and one in the county. There are also scholarships at district and state levels to assist Club members.
Community Service. Extension Education Club members are interested in improving
the life of all families in the community. Clubs and individuals have their
own favorite projects.
