Dear 4-H Family,

Happy Holidays! December is a month to celebrate the spirit of community and spend extra time with our loved ones. Many clubs will take part in local parades, collect food for the needy, adopt a family, or go caroling in nursing homes or local communities. Please be sure to read all the posts in the e-news and be sure to mark your calendars with all of the exciting 4-H activities!

On November 16, over 150 4-H members and families attended the 4 Little Clovers Dinner Theatre at North Georgetown Elementary. Members prepared delicious dishes from around the world, displayed photographs, graphic and computer arts, and shared their many talents. Be sure to read the full overview in this newsletter!

Bethany Killmon, Dublin Hill 4-H Club, was recently selected to the Junior Board of the Delaware State Fair. Congratulations on being accepted as a part of this important team!

Upcoming events include: State Skating Party, Winter Fun Day, Youth-Adult Partnership Conference, State Leaders Forum, and the Public Speaking Contest.

I hope you enjoy this holiday season with your loved ones. As we look forward to the New Year 2014, set your sights high and try new things. There are sure to be many wonderful opportunities to explore!

Looking forward to seeing you at the next 4-H event!

Yours in 4-H,
Jill Jackson
