4-H meeting

Our club meetings have started to run more smoothly.  Each year is a little better as the kids learn parli pro and know what to expect.  Sometimes it gets a little loud, but I think they still have fun.

Below the club officers are shown with Clover Shop Grant Award.  Our club applied for a grant to help with expenses associated with our Garden Workshop and Greenhouse Tour that has become an annual event in the Spring.  We won a grant!  The money will be used to cover the cost of supplies, reimburse the project leaders, and cover the cost of the community service aspect of the project.

Our project at this meeting was making butterfly/dragon-fly garden stakes from metal.  The older members helped the younger members before doing their own.  These kids are great!

You probably notice that we involve parents at each step, too.  We have great parent involvement in our group, and it’s so nice to have a variety of talents.

You can just barely see the project in Mr. B’s hands.  They’re really cute and not something that will sit around the house … that’s something we always try to think about because most of us have more than one child!  We don’t want three, four or five of something that isn’t useful or purposeful.

We were missing a few families, but had a great time.
