Meeting Change for KindHearted Cloverbuds and KH4H

We have to change our meeting originally scheduled for Sept. 16 ~ I have started grad school and that is one of the nights I have class and I can't miss ~

We have it down to two dates which are both on Tuesday: Tuesday, Sept. 22 OR Tuesday, Oct. 13 ~ Please vote for your preference ASAP and we will go with the one that works for the most people ~

This meeting will be a year end wrap-up and we will be passing out certificates and celebrating a most wonderful year with our Cloverbuds and KH4Hers ~ It will be an ice cream social and we will meet with both the Cloverbuds and KH4Hers and their families from 6:30-8 PM ~ We will provide the ice cream and then we will have people bring toppings and bowls to share ~ More info to come once we settle on a date......

Thanks!

KH4H Fair Reminders

KH4Hers ~

The fair is upon us ~ It's time to be finishing up projects or shifting into high gear ~ Our meeting on July 15 at 7 p.m. will be completely fair-focused ~

Everyone needs to be prepared to share something that they've put together to demonstrate what they've learned from one of their projects ~ Even if they don't plan on showing at this year's fair, we would still like to see what you've learned ~ This is your time to show-off and let everyone see how hard you've been working ~

The easiest way to show your progress is probably in the form of a poster ~ Also make sure you have completed the Discovering 4H book (you can use this as your fair project) We will be presenting the group with some questions about the Discovering 4H project to make sure everyone has completed it (we are required to do this by the Extension office)

So the bulk of our meeting will be focused on project progress and finishing Discovering 4H ~

CLOVERBUDS!

Our next meeting is on Wednesda, July 1 @ 6 PM ~ Allen Township Building

JUST A REMINDER! This will be the last meeting before the Fair ~ We will work on getting a display together for the fair to represent our group AND we will be making decorations for the parade ~
Please bring to the next meeting the following:

Two Large Bags of Wrapped Candy that we can hand out on the Parade Route
A Plain 4-Leaf Clover cut out of any color green poster board (approx. 12 X 12 inches in size) ~ we will decorate these at our meeting to be used on the trailer/truck for decorations ~
A school picture size of yourself ~ We will use these to create our fair display poster ~ the picture doesn't have to be your school picture it just has to be cut to about that small size (1X2)
Your Nature Board if you decorated it from our Field Trip
AND....any interesting pictures or photos that your child plans on entering in open class and would like to share ~

I know this is a lot more than usual but given the time crunch, it will help Rachel and I to have some things done ahead of time (like the Clovers)

Please Call or E-Mail if you have any questions ~ We will give everyone final instructions regarding the fair parade at the July 15 meeting ~
