Wow, summer sure has flown by. Fair is almost here, luckily our record
books are already being judge so that is out of the way. I will have them back
in time for fair and will take them there myself. Hannah and Mary have
volunteered to make a poster of club activities for the general 4-H display.
Thanks girls! On Monday about 5 p.m., we will set up the club display.
Each member is encouraged to do a scene which will be judged. If you want to do
more then one, that�s great but only one will be judged. We have some 5-gallon
fish tanks to cover the scenes so they can�t be to long or wide. We also have
the display case for smaller items. Hopefully our club display will be in the
same spot as last year. We will also be setting out the jugs to collect
pop-tops. All 4-H projects and record books form any club needs to be at the
fairgrounds between 8 and 10 a.m. on Tuesday.
On Friday from 8 to 11 a.m. we need to work in the pop booth. This is a
requirement of all clubs and all members should plan to attend for some part of
the time. We should all be in our tee shirts at this time also.
The demonstration
contest will be on Thursday at 4 p.m. and the speech contest on Saturday at 3
p.m. I highly encourage all club members to try this. I
think the younger members would be great at the impromptu speeches. For that,
each contestant draws a topic then has one minute to think about it before
giving their speech. We had lots of youth last year and they all did well. I
know the older girls will do great in either event and hope everyone
tries.
The 4-H exhibits and books can be picked upon Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Not
before! Or they can be picked up on Sunday from 8 to 11 a.m. Open class entries
can be picked up on Sunday. I will be there Sunday to take down our club
display.
As you know, the Model Club runs all year long so our next meeting has
been set for September 21st from 2 to 4 at the Commissioner�s Office.
This meeting will be a year-end party and planning meeting for the Breyer Day.
It�s the third Wednesday of the month in which the schools let out early. I
tried for the Library basement, but it was reserved. If Wednesdays wouldn�t
work, we can try another date at the library. Please let me know. Don�t forget
it will be getting dark early during the winter. We already have a bunch of
stuff planned. Diane Fisher will be doing a photo clinic and bring down her
cameras, lights and props so we can get some really good photos to start photo
showing with. Hopefully we will have speakers to talk about driving and harness
horses and a mini-hands-on packing clinic.
On October 8th we will be hosting a Breyer Day at King�s. This
will be during National 4-H Week so we need to start planning that event. We
will also be recruiting new members then.
Please call me if you can�t
attend any of these events, my phone number is
756-3182.
SEE
YOU AT THE FAIR!!!
