Ted Blum 4-H Center of Somerset County, 310 Milltown Rd, Bridgewater, NJ, 08807

Families are invited to the Somerset County 4-H Open House on Thursday, September 24, 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Ted Blum 4-H Center, 310 Milltown Road, Bridgewater, to learn about all that 4-H has to offer. The 4-H Youth Development Program is offered through the Cooperative Extension System of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It is one of the oldest and largest youth organizations in America, with 6 million members. 4-H is open to any child from K-13 (one year out of high school). Young people may select from a broad menu of local 4‑H programs developed by educators that offer hands-on, learn-by-doing, opportunities in agriculture, STEM, health, civic engagement and the arts.
The Open House features representatives from the almost 80 clubs available in Somerset County through Rutgers Cooperative Extension. There is also information on both short- and long-term volunteer opportunities for adults.

4-H Prep, also known as Cloverbuds, is open to grades K-3 and offers a mix of activities. Traditional 4-H clubs, for grades 4-13, focus on a particular project area. A few of the projects currently offered in Somerset County are robotics, food &amp; nutrition, beekeeping, gardening, rabbits, sewing, poultry, model trains, twirling, remote control cars, archery and more.Somerset County 4-H also has a Seeing Eye Puppy program. In a unique partnership with The Seeing Eye based in Morristown, N.J., 4-H’ers are provided with potential service dog puppies. With the help of family, trained volunteers and their club, 4-H members raise and socialize the pups and provide basic training. The dogs are then returned to The Seeing Eye at 14-16 months of age to continue their training to become Seeing Eye service dogs for the blind and visually impaired.&nbsp; For a list of 4-H clubs and to learn more, visit 4HisTOPS.org.

Princeton Seminary Chapel

Join Maestro George Marriner Maull and the Madison String Quartet for a live radio broadcast of Inside Music on WWFM!
Separated by eight years and a day—and 4,700 miles—Dmitri Shostakovich and George Gershwin developed radically different musical styles. Through engaging audience interaction, discover fresh insights with Maestro Maull and the Quartet into works by these two early 20th-century composers, whose birthdays we honor on September 25th and 26th.
Renowned for their dynamic performances and innovative repertoire choices, the&nbsp;Madison String Quartet&nbsp;(Evelyn Estava, violin; Rebecca Harris-Lee, violin; Michael&nbsp;Avagliano, viola; and Gerall Hieser, violoncello)&nbsp;has firmly established itself as a trailblazing ensemble, with a special focus on exploring Hispanic musical traditions from both sides of the Atlantic. As noted by Paul Somers of Classical New Jersey, the quartet has expertly carved out a unique niche in the world of classical music. One of the Quartet’s distinguishing features is its commitment to breaking down the barrier between performers and the audience, creating an inviting and immersive atmosphere that allows masterpieces from various eras to shine.
Tickets are free, but required! To register, and for more information including parking, please see the "More info here" link above.
