The Gallatin County 4-H Council is always looking for unique ways to not only fundraise for 4-H camp but involve the community. This year, they decided to host Breakfast with the Grinch. For $5.00, you got a breakfast, a make and take craft, and a picture with the Grinch. A local photographer, trying to start up her business, volunteered to take all the pictures. We had two different back drops, one for family portraits and one with the Grinch. The 4-H Art Club designed and created all the table decorations. 4-H parents and 4-H members cooked and helped out at the event. Over $700 was made for 4-H Camp in 2 hours and our local photographer has new clients wanting family portraits. Next year, the council wants to make it even bigger and involve local businesses and the school and have a 5K run.
