Cutting Up and Pasting Down, Watch Out District Here we Come!

As you can tell from the blog I am a real shutter bug. Not an actual bug but someone who like to take pictures. Photos are a great way to document history and remember stories. That is one reason Robeson County 4-H has a blog. Another thing we try to do is create a scrapbook each year that goes into district level competition. Last year, thanks to the guidance of volunteer Libby Burney Robeson County 4-H won the district scrapbook award. Which means we are now in the difficult position of defending our title.
However to create the 10 pound book takes lots of photos and lots of work. So Christopher Bullard our 4-H County Council Reporter worked with Libby Burney our 4-H Volunteer Leaders Association reporter to start working on the book. they created two workshops on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week and asked 4-H members to come in and put pages together.
We had lots of hands involved in this year's book. Helping during the workshop were, Libby Burney, Christopher Bullard, Tryange Gerald, Caylee Holden, Chasity McClay, Christian McRae, Aljaquan Nixon, Korina Pittman, Ashley Sealey, Kristen Sealey, Shabreya Vample, and Yazmin Washington. For two days they arranged, captioned and pasted photos as a reminder of what we have done. However the book is not done yet and Mrs. Burney took it with her to make sure it gets done.
We have heard that several clubs have turned in pages but of course we are hoping for 100% participation. If you need scrapbooking supplies or would like to help finish the rest of the pages, please contact the 4-H office at (910) 671-3276.
