Can't be Christmas without 4-H Green


I know, I know. Thanksgiving isn't even here yet and we are already talking turkey about Christmas. We can't help it though because Saturday was the annual Lumberton Christmas Parade and this year our 4-H volunteers and members got into the Centennial Holiday spirit in a big way.

With a last minute vehicle replacement courtesy of Archie McLean's plumbing...our incredible volunteer committee headed by Mrs. Libby Burney set out to decorate a pickup truck and trailer. It was an incredible site with metallic silver and green streamers hanging down and centennial banners and members of several 4-H clubs along for the ride. The volunteers and youth spent a couple of hours decorating our entry and those who helped got to ride while others walked along side.

We want to give a special mention to our volunteers who helped out with this grand effort; Mrs. Libby Burney, Missy McLean, Marilyn Merritt and Jane Hurst. Not to mention the clubs which had members and volunteers participate, the St. Paul's 4-H Pony Club, The Horsin' Around 4-H Club, the "Dirty Rascals" Junior Master Gardener Club, The Lightn' Electric Club, and Young Leaders. Thank you for participating to show how we are 4-H proud and after 100 years still strong.
