Dear 4-H Families,
This summer has been filled with lots of 4-H activities and events. Two weeks of State 4-H Camp, Environmental Camp and the Exchange Group hosted Stillwater, Montana. Other events included the State Fair and Georgetown Day Camp.
With the new 4-H year starting in September, there are lots of exciting activities and events to look forward to. Coming up in September our regular monthly meetings begin again. We also have the Archery Safety Training/Shoot, Coastal Cleanup, Dairy Club and Robotics Club Meetings and our County Achievement Event. Our county program is growing and we are excited to meet new members, leaders, and families!
Thank you to the clubs who submit a club reports each month, please keep them coming! Be sure to submit your club news to Tammy or myself by the 25th of each month. Include a fun activity, projects completed, and photos of your club in actions. We love to see and share what each club is doing!
During this busy time and throughout the year, please remember to check your email and the online newsletter regularly for news and updates. Be sure to sign up for events (county and statewide) by the posted deadlines. Thanks for your help!
Tammy Schirmer has returned to work! She appreciates everyone who supported her on her quest to Kiss the Pig at the Fair! She was the top fundraiser and achieved her goal of giving the pig a big smooch!
Please feel free to call, email, or visit my office if you have any new ideas, suggestions, or concerns about Sussex 4-H programming. My door is always open and I love hearing new ideas for our members and clubs!
Yours in 4-H,
Jill Jackson
Extension Educator, 4-H
