hello 4-H members

Howdy 4-Hers,

This month has been a very busy one for me. I have contacted two groups to be sponsors for our upcoming State Leadership Conference. I have also been in Florida competing on the National teem for the state of Pennsylvania in a club called Family Career and Community Leaders of America. This club is from my school and I competed in a public speaking event on how to keep students active and healthy. I received a bronze medal in the senior event. I attended the Lycoming County Fair on July 18th to receive a scholarship and I wore my State Officer Shirt to help promote 4-H. While at the fair I was asked about State Council and what we do while a member on council and of my experiences in 4-H. I entered a display on being a Council member, what it entails and how to become one. In August my display will be at the Union County fair for other people to look at and maybe coming to other fairs around my area also. During the week of July 21st to 25th I volunteered at Lycoming College for their Lyco for kids event. I had the chance to help kids with the different projects in the class. From a volcano to finding leaves for a tee shirt to making name tags. This experience was very awarding and helpful. July 26th was my 4-H round up for horses. After one long day I received first in all my classes. Well it was easy for the judge since I was the only one in my class. I am now waiting for Districts which is August 16th. Whew, After all this i have been working on my skit, podcast and opening script for State Days,. It has been a challenge trying to get everything done. I do hope you all chose to attend State Days and have the chance to meet members from all over Pennsylvania.

Until Next time,
