About a third of summer is gone, but don't fret. It just means that you need to get out there, and do more 4-H activities. Keep your eyes and ears open for anything that sounds fun and interesting! Don't be afraid to go to the new club meeting. I promise it will only lead to you making new friends and having more fun!
This past month I've been extremely busy with 4-H. I was a camp counselor for the Southwest Regional Camp. To prepare for that, I had to attend a day-long training session, to be ready for any camp situations that might arise. This also gave me the opportunity to get to know the several new counselors, and make new friends. It was an awesome week! The camp's theme was the Olympics. We had workshops on sports, staying healthy and smart drinks. One of my favorite activities, along with most of the campers, was having our own Olympics. All the campers got to take part in "real" events in our recreation field. As the end of camp gets near, most of us were ready to go home, but I miss all my friends, new and old, and start thinking about the memories and experience, as soon as I start unpacking.
I was also very busy all month, working on my sewing project, for the Southwest Pennsylvania Fashion Review. I made a gown, which I will wear for my Christmas dance. I had to have it finished June 17th to get the registration forms in on time, which had to include a picture of me wearing my project. Unfortunately for me, the final few days were during the Regional camp, so I had to be done even earlier. In the end, everything ended up working out. I took second place, which I was very proud of, because my project ended up being much more difficult than I expected.
Keep looking for more!
