Success StoryField Day



Field Day

Author: James Cecil

Planning Unit: Clinton County CES

Major Program: Leadership

Plan of Work: Developing Leadership, Life Skills and Social Responsibility

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Clinton County 4-H has been able to help with with Field Day at the Clinton County Middle School for years until last year and with the COVID-19 Pandemic we were not able to provide that service for the Middle School 4-Hers.  We were so happy to have the privilege to be able to be involved with this event this year.  I feel that it is important to be involved with our local school district and our 4-Hers are used to seeing Mrs. Linda and I so it makes it easy for us to help with this event.  I enjoy seeing the 4-Hers take part and the events we had this year and we had Tug of War, Egg Toss, Timed Relay Race and Balloon Relay.  We had a total of 268 Fifth thru Eight graders participate in Field Day.  I feel it is important to see 4-Hers step up and lead small groups in events in all aspects of their lives.  Whether it is in a class room or on the sports field it is important that our 4-Hers learn responsibility and leadership qualities.
