National 4-H Week is our time to tell the world about 4-H. This year’s theme, INSPIRED to LEAD | CALLED to SERVE, captures what it means to be a 4-H member. You are encouraged to find ways to celebrate October 6 – 12. Use the hashtag #inspiredby4H and #inspiredtoLEAD as you share your 4-H activities on social media. Watch our Fa-cebook page for contests all week long.
Paper Clover Campaign returns
in October
Dates for the Fall Paper Clover Campaign, held in conjunction with Tractor Supply Stores and National 4-H Council, are October 9 - 20. Money donated dur-ing the campaign STAYS in that local county. The campaign runs twice a year.
Achievement Dinner will be a potluck. The main course will be provided. Families are asked bring a
side dish or dessert to share that will serve 8-10 people.
To help assure we have a wide variety of items, we ask that families whose last name starts with:
A-K-dessert
L-P-potato dish
O-Z-salad or vegetable dish
4-H awards for the year will be announced, along with recognition of youth who received champi-
on awards at the 4-H animal shows in the summer.
*** The 4-H Achievement Program is a special night to honor Clinton County 4-H members. There will
be no activities for small children. Please limit youth attendance to 4-H members.***
