4-H Jeopardy. The Question is Who Won?


 Tonight marked the second 4-H County Council and 4-H Volunteer Leaders' Association meeting for 2013.  In an effort to make the evening a little more exciting a game night theme was chosen.  Before the meeting began the County Council officers had fun with the early arrivals as they took part in Mad Libs.  Lets' just say some pretty ugly stories evolved from the placement of random adjectives, nouns, verbs, and adverbs.
  Each club present offered a report with the game theme.  We had reports that included multiple games, were done in clue, bingo, darts, and even Mad Gab.  As we went through the agenda there were reports about all the activities that have occurred since our last meeting in February.  The group also had the opportunity to enjoy performances by Christian Tice and Tyrick Taylor of the St. Paul's 4-H Pony Club and Jeshaiah Moore of Young Leaders and Doin' It Big 4-H Clubs.  The three were the top point winners from 4-H Entertains and have the opportunity to represent Robeson County at the Southeast 4-H District Activity Day at Mount Olive College.
  Near the end of the meeting the group talked about the theme for the next meeting which they determined would be career oriented.  They are asking all members who attend to dress for their favorite career.  Clubs will be asked to give career oriented club reports, and more fun will be planned with the officers meet in May.
  Of course the coup de gras of this meeting was playing 4-H Jeopardy.  Everyone broke into two groups and answered questions to the best of their ability.  When it came down to it the winner of the game was determined by the last questions which was a double jeopardy.  We did have a special prize for the winning team which they opened with speed and excitement to find they received an iPad and mini iPad....well the April Fool's version of the trendy technology gadgets.
  Our next meeting will be held at the 4-H office on June 3rd.  Don't forget to come as your favorite professional!   See you then.
