Final 2024-2025 Club Meeting

 It is hard to beleive that we are just about to wrap up this 4-H season! 

April 24th will be our last community club meeting for this season. It will be at 6pm at the AJ Rec Center. We hope to see everyone there. Come with ideas for our end of year party and the costs. We have about 25 families! 

We will plan to start meeting back again in August. So if you plan to return or know of a new club member be sure to be on the look out for that meeting date. There is always new familes that join and there is a bunch of information that has to be shared about fair, deadlines, rule books between small and large animals. I would love to get a few of us leaders together before this August meeting and we have a Q&A night about joining 4-H and try to knock out a lot of those details. Let me know if any of you are interested in helping me with that. Maybe we involve the kids, and have project tables for those who are intrested to learn? 

I am always open to hearing anyway to make our club better! 

See you all soon!

Michelle
