Congratulations to all the 2012 Seniors.  We will miss you, but at the same
time, wish you all the best.


We would like to wish you a Safe & Good Summer.   
Looking forward to our New Year Enrollment for 2012-2013.


This is a very necessary meeting.  Since no 4-H Council Officers or 4-H Council 
Members showed up for the previous meeting, we were not able to decide or
 vote on anything.  We have issues to approve and the Achievement Night needs
 to be planned.  We need support for this from everyone including parents, please.  
The fund raiser is done for the benefits of the 4-Her’s. 
 If no one is willing to step up and help; then Achievement Night can not be planned.

If you have any questions, please call JD 830-780-3906 or email him jdfolbre@ag.tamu.edu

Record books are an important part to maintaining your 4-H project.  In order to compete for
county awards or scholarships you need a recordbook.  Please come by the office if you are eligible for the Bronze, Silver, Gold Awards or the 4-H Booster Scholarship. This year, you will enter your Recordbook on line.  Please submit a hard copy to our office on June 21st.
Please go to 4hreports.com to follow the instructions on how to do the Recordbook on
line.
 Recordbooks will be due in the County Extension Office, Thursday, 
June 21, 2012 by 5 PM. 

Deadline for registration is Monday, June 4th.   Please call the office to register 830-780-3906.
