Getting it done on the County Level

Monday night at 6:30 p.m. can only mean one thing…time for our quarterly 4-H County Council and Volunteer Leaders’ Association meeting. This meeting was jam packed full of information. We had the announcement of two new clubs, the Orrum Church Rascals 4-H Club and the Dirty Dozen 4-H Shooting Sports Club. We also introduced members of the 4-H Specialized Advisory Committee, Dave Welch, Betty Maxwell, Jessica Drake and Jane Hurst who set their meeting prior to our meeting so they could attend and see our clubs, volunteers and officers in action. The clubs represented at the meeting included;Future Leaders, Horsin' Around, Voices in Praise, Dirty Dozen, Dirty Rascals, St. Paul's Pony Club, Young Leaders, and Inspirational Leaders. The St. Paul’s Pony club won the high attendance award. Miss. Shea Ann also let the club leaders in attendance know about the new deadline to file taxes (for those clubs with EIN numbers) by Friday April 16, with our office. This is a firm deadline and cannot be changed. Hazel Sumner, President of the Volunteer Leaders’ Association encouraged those on committees, and leading committees, to meet and have reports ready for our next meeting. Our next meeting will be August 30th, and include the elections for the officers for 2010-2011.
