Winter 2017 OTTAWA COUNTY 4-H FAMILY NEWSLETTER
Buckeye Leadership Workshop is a learning, sharing “workshop” intended as a balanced program of social,
physical, mental & spiritual activities. We believe that Buckeye Leadership Workshop provides a powerful
learning environment in which anyone who works with people, professionally or informally, can develop
programming for youth or adults. The workshop also benefits those who simply enjoy associating with great
people, experiencing new ideas, and learning new skills. Experiential learning through recreation is truly the
intent and methodology of Buckeye Leadership Workshop.
This year the BLW is a 5-day seminar that will be held March 29 – April 2 in Ashley, Ohio. The cost is $350
(with the 4-H Advisory Committee paying 2/3’s to first time attendees) if paid on or before February 28th or $375
after February 28th. 4-H members who are 15 years old (or a freshman in high school) or older (including
adults!) are encouraged to attend. Full-time participation from Wednesday evening until Sunday at 4:00 p.m. is
required. Call the office for more information or visit: www.buckeyeleadership.org

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION
Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD) for
4-H Youth Livestock Producers & Families
What is a VFD?
A VFD is a written (nonverbal) statement issued by a
licensed veterinarian that authorizes the use of an
approved VFD drug or combination VFD drug in or on
an animal feed. This written statement authorizes the
client (owner of the animal) to obtain and use animal
feed bearing or containing a VFD drug or combination
VFD drug to treat the client’s animals only in
accordance with the conditions for use approved by the
FDA (Food and Drug Administration)
(1) The client (youth producer) must establish a
veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR) to
be able to get a VFD. This is true whether the 4-H
member has one food-producing animal or several.
When must the VFD be implemented?
January 1, 2017. Starting January 1, 2017, you can no
longer stop by a feed store and buy a bag of medicated
feed containing certain types of antibiotics that were
previously classified as over-the-counter (OTC) drugs.
As of January 1, 2017, the FDA requires that clients
have a VFD to be able to purchase animal feeds
containing these antibiotics.
What species of animals require a VFD?
Cattle, swine, sheep, goats, poultry, honey bees & fish,
as well as other food-producing species, even if they
are not intended for food production. For example,
backyard chickens kept as pets still require a VFD for
certain antibiotics to be legally added to their feed, and
a prescription for certain antibiotics to be added to
water.
For additional information on the Veterinary Feed
Directive (VFD), please visit the Ottawa County OSU
Extension website at ottawa.osu.edu.

Ohio 4-H International Program
Celebrating 67 Years! Open Your World! Ohio 4-H International Exchange Programs are among the largest and most
successful in the country. Ohio families host visitors from around the world. Host families are
not required to be current 4-H members ~ in fact, they automatically become members by
participating! Join us this year!
2017 Host Family Opportunities Don’t have the time and money to travel? Enjoy the exposure to different cultures which
traveling brings? Looking for a low-cost project or experience in which the whole family can
participate and grow together? The Ohio 4-H International Program allows families to gain the
benefits of international travel right here at home, as they welcome a new son, daughter,
brother, or sister from another country into their homes. Host families come in many shapes and
sizes and are responsible for lodging, meals, and family activities. Exchangees bring personal
spending money, as well as medical/accident insurance. Host families are asked to “live” their
everyday life,” and to simply treat their visitor as a member of the family, with the same
responsibilities and privileges as other members.
Notes: Families hosting a youth must have their own child of the same gender and approximate age.
Families should not have any native speakers of the language of their visitor, and can only host
one visitor at a time.
Deadline: As soon as possible, by 2/28 for 1st choice placement. Applications accepted until all
youth are placed (usually March for females & April for males). However, please inquire
whenever you learn about our program.
2017 exchange visitors to Ohio will include:
Japanese Labo Youth for 1 month
July 23-August 17
(Ages 12-15)
Japanese Labo Adult for 2-4 Weeks
July 23-August 5 or August 5-17 or Both
