Q1
This is an awesome idea. Thank you for offering this opportunity. Should we stay within our kiddos grade level or can they also observe in the higher grade levels?

A1
I don't see any problem with putting a 3rd grader into a session meant for older students. You know your child better than us and if you think that is better suited for him, then that is OK with us.

Q2
Is it ok to drop off my form and check at the OSU Extension office at 930 North Portland?

A2
Unfortunately, no. The 4-H secretary at the Extension office has said that because of rules and regulations, they cannot collect money at the extension office. The best way is to send a check directly to the address listed in the SOS documentation.

Q3
I won't be able to send a pre-enrollment form before the Saturday event. Can I bring my children and money to the SOS event and enroll them right before it starts?

A3
Definately yes. We have plenty of openings in all sessions. I don't see any problems in bringing your children and enrolling them right before the event. However, it would be nice to let us know (by email) that you plan to come and which sessions you want so that we have enough resources. Send an email to:

Q4
If my child is taking both the morning session and the afternoon session, can I just leave them with you and not pick them up between the sessions?

A4
For an extra five dollars, we will provide pizza and a drink so that parents will not have to come pick up their children between the morning and afternoon session. The pizza is included in the price if you pay whole day rate of $35. ($15 for both sessions and $5 for lunch).

Q5
Is it ok with you if we (the parents) stay and watch our children during their session?

A5
You (the parents) are free to stay and watch us do the sessions. Or if you want you can leave and come back when the session is over. If you decide to leave, we may ask you to fill out an additional insurance form (4-H requirement).
