ORONO — University of Maine Cooperative Extension 4-H is set to offer an online information session on the Maine 4-H chapter of the Wildlife Habitat Education Program from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 26.
WHEP, a national program with wildlife and fisheries habitat management education programs for youth ages 8 to 19, offers training and support from UMaine Extension 4-H staff.
WHEP 4-H clubs are led by Extension 4-H volunteers who work with youth to learn and practice their skills.
Youth can also participate in the annual state competition. Volunteers do not need to be content experts; training and hands-on practice will be provided.
The session is free; registration is required. To register, visit the program webpage at extension.umaine.edu.
For more information or to request a reasonable accommodation, contact Erin McDonald at 207-581-8163 or [email protected].

Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
