The 4-H Council decided to host a recruitment dinner in order to increase the membership on the council and to provide information on the role and function of a county 4-H Council. As a result of the event, 6 new members were recruited and actively volunteer for 4-H events and 3 have stepped up into leadership roles on the council.
Learning to sew is a life skill that youth can develop into a business to earn extra income or utilize their skills to save money as adults by being self-sufficient. Two certified Master Clothing Volunteers and two volunteers donated over 100 hours and their expertise to instruct 14 youth to sew. All 14 completed a clothing or non-clothing project.
The 4-H Council sponsored the pre-sale rib eye meal as a fundraiser with approximately $1200 being raised. Fifteen volunteers helped to grill steaks, make desserts, and package and deliver over 150 meals/sandwiches.
4-H 4 All and Breakfast with the Easter Bunny were also held again as events to raise funds for the council. Both events included over 70 youth and adult volunteers.
