Tonight marked the March meeting for the Doin' It Big 4-H Entrepreneurial Club. Club leader Rhonda Drye made sure the club members kicked things off with the pledges and then they sat down and had a talk about one of the things the youth need to concentrate on to be Entrepreneurs, setting goals. They members discussed how getting an education is important for their futures and by setting goals today they can ensure they college path and other things they would like to accomplish in life. They talked about what they would need to ensure their goals come true, things like discipline, self confidence, a willingness to work to make it happen. After a lively talk about what they need to set their goals, and naming some of their personal goals the group worked on a community service project.
The community service project was a cut up. Found on Pinterest (and now on our Robeson County 4-H Pinterest Page) The youth used refashioned paper towel rolls and yarn to make different size and color pom poms. By adding felt, pipe cleaner feet, and google eyes, the members made the cutest little chicks, that could only put a smile on your face. There was a little trial and error with the project, and they even got some hands on help from Jessica Drake the All Around All Stars 4-H Arts and Crafts Club Leader. In the end they may not have filled their Easter Basket quite yet, but they have a good start and I am sure some more will hatch soon. When filled they will take the basket to Gibson Cancer center so that they chicks can brighten the day of some of their patients who utilize the facility.
