How do you look for favorite places? Think about your family taking a trip. What kinds of places would you like to see during your family adventure?
Help us discover youth favorite places in your community by participating in the National GIS-GPS Community Mapping Project.
Youth will learn about key natural resources, cultural and recreational sites in your community. While sharing and promoting their favorite places youth will help boost local tourism and participate in building a national database as a 4-H community service project.
Steps to Participate:
1. Interested youth discuss their favorite places with their local 4-H club leader or NDSU Extension staff utilizing 4-H Youth Favorite Places criteria from the brochure or web site.
2. Gather Data using the Data Elements Collection sheet (www.youthfavoriteplaces.org/turnkey/YFP-06-dataform.pdf)
