Show
Me The Money
Don’t throw away those monopoly dollars
that you won at the first meeting (the ones with my initials on them). We’ll be
giving out money throughout the 4H year for items in the Newsletter, community
service involvement, ice breaker winners and other good things. At the end of
the year we’ll have an auction using the
money.
Federation!

Demonstrations
We’re headed down a new trail for demonstrations this
year. Here’s what we want to see the focus on this year. DEMONSTRATE!.
That simple. Instead of just talking about your project,
or what you did, SHOW US. Let’s look at some step-by-step demonstrations and
WHY you are doing the steps. Examples:
Fold a Flag
Make a sandwich
Paint a picture
Build a model
Show how to do the activity
on the poster.
Plant a flower pot
Make a flower arrangement
Got the idea?
And 16 to 18 year olds---- It’s your turn this month!
T-Shirts
Make sure
you sign up for the style of T-Shirt you want for this year. T-Shirts are $15.
We’ll have them ordered and hopefully back to us by the November meeting.
(T-Shirts
are optional)
