Dear 4-H Families,

Happy Holidays!  December is a month to celebrate the spirit of community and spend extra time with our loved ones.  Please be sure to read all the posts in the newsletter and be sure to mark your calendars with all of the exciting 4-H activities!  Upcoming events include:  Santa Calls, Virtual Hippology Contest, Winter Fun Day and Public Speaking Contest!

During December, many clubs participate in holiday parades and community service activities.  Four of our clubs received grants from the Good Ole Boy Foundation to provide holiday cheer to families in need!  The Jr. Council is donating items to teens in the Children and Families First program and other clubs are helping others in many ways for the holidays.  Thank you for thinking of others and serving our community!

I hope you enjoy this holiday season with your family and friends.  As we look forward to the New Year 2022, set your sights high and try new things.  There are sure to be many wonderful opportunities to explore!

Yours in 4-H,

Jill Jackson
