A wonderful night was had by all who attended the Acheivement Night on Saturday. Smiling youth, proud parents, grandparents and leaders and friends. The games and cupcake wars afterwards were a big hit! Thank you to the wonderful volunteers who pulled it together. A special thanks to Diana Stornetta and Lisa Jack. PLEASE consider volunteering to help next year! We can use you for set-up and or take down even if you only have an hour to give. Our All Star, Emily Eakins was brilliant! Her Rising Stars were efficient and professional. 4-H grows such great youth!!! Definately the leaders of tomorrow.

This year, I am finally making time to get out and visit club meetings! I could not decide which order to go in and finally decided to visit the Host Club for each CCC meeting. I had such a fun time at Steuben's meeting! Great to be with the kids and see those officers running the meetings. I'll be visiting Green Valley and Two Rock next month. I'll be contacting you before I comme so that I can get on the agenda for 5 minutes. I have a project that I'm hoping the kids will take on.
