Community Service

  • Operation Christmas Child - the club voted to participate again this year.  

    • I suggest Petefishes, Krempins, and Harms get together one day to shop in Granby for 4 kids, and Kenna, Ben, Audrey and Wutzes get together one day in Kremmling to shop for the other 2 kids.

    • Budget is $20-23 per child/shoebox.

    • I will send out recommendations of what to purchase for the shoeboxes and what not to buy.  

    • If anyone has shoeboxes to use, please bring those for shopping as it is easier for the kids to figure out what will fit.  If there aren’t enough shoeboxes, then a plastic bin can be purchased at the Dollar Store that is same size as a shoebox.

    • Shopping should be completed before meeting--achievement awards potluck on Nov.13th

    • Please bring filled shoeboxes November 13th so they can be taken to a drop off location the next week.

    • Susan Wall--can Tim take the shoeboxes to Dillon Community Church again sometime from November 16-23?

  • Donations - the club voted to donate $100 to West Grand Wishes, $100 to Joyful Givers, and $200 to Middle Park 4-H Council.

  • Community Tree Lightings

    • Granby’s is Dec 4th - Tish will check what their restrictions will be and how we can participate.  If we have to individually wrap cookies, then we will bow out.

    • Kremmling - Chamber would like us to provide cookies again.

      • Brandy Heitzenrater can make cookies for us at cost.  She will get back to me on what “cost” is.

      • Families will also make cookies themselves to provide for Kremmling.

Club Achievement Night/Club Meeting/Potluck - November 13th

Council is paying each club $5/member for that club’s achievement awards celebration.  We will have ours in conjunction with our next 4-H meeting on November 13th. Awards for our club will be picked up at the extension office to be handed out.

It was suggested that we have the meeting at 5 PM.  Then we can eat at 6 PM and have awards.  Dads are encouraged to come.  

Location will be at 6761 County Road 22 -- at our ranch in a barn.  Please dress for the weather.  We will be protected from wind and hope to have a burn pit or two in the barn.  There is electricity in the barn for crockpots, etc.  More info will follow as we get closer.
