We do all sorts of things in 4-H, and one of the big things we encourage is giving back to the community.
Today the All Around All Stars 4-H Arts and Crafts Club did just that. You may remember an earlier post this month where club members made brightly colored fleece scarves, and adorned them with buttons and other decorations. The goal at their club meeting was to make as many wonderful scarves as possible and donate them to those who might need and enjoy them. Sort of a hug by proxy from club members.
Today two club members, Kierin Hatcher and Maggie Underwood, were able to stop by Robeson Pediatrics (along with a few adults that they allowed to take part) and deliver the scarves to Dr. Katie who will give them to patients who might need a warm scarf. With cold and flu season upon us this is the perfect time for this type of donation. Maggie modeled a scarf while Kierin talked about decorating them. The club even asked about other projects that might be helpful for children and Dr. Katie replied that baby blankets are always a wonderful necessity at their office. Hmmmmm, sounds like a future project for this club that is always crafting for a cause. Way to go All Around All Stars!
