What do you do in 4-H? - It
depends on you. 4-H members
may be a friend in the same

from other communities. Clubs
decide how often to meet and
elect officers to conduct club
business. Your club may decide

raise money for chanty, become
involved in recycling projects or
build nature trails. You can go
on field trips or to 4-H camp.

older.

are no state or national dues or

$3.50 per year for printed
materials and information, and

collect dues to fund special
activities.
4-H is Learning Today,
Leading
Tomorrow

’’learning by doing" - Learning
how to set goals and work toward
those goals; responsibility —for
an animal, finishing projects,
choosing how much to leam and

Twice-Around
Style Show
Aug. 19
Come out to the fair and enjoy
the second annual Twice-Around
Style Show.
The idea of recycling has really
caught on here in Morrow
County, so last year the style
show committee tried the idea of
recycling clothes to show what a
cost-effective idea this is. The
style show was such a success
that we are doing it again.
If you have a favorite outfit
you would like to model or have
someone else model what you
bought "second" from the
Heppner Neighborhood Center,
Condon Thrift Store or other
thrift stores, a yard sale or a
secondhand store, call Janice
Skaggs, 676-5024, or Liz Green,
676-9832.
The style show also needs
models of all shapes and sizes, so
all of you potential stars, give us
a call.
This show is also a great
shopping opportunity because the
Heppner Neighborhood Center
and Condon Thrift Store will
have clothes that can be bought
off the rack or off the model.
See you Wednesday, Aug. 19,
at 6:30 p.m. at the Morrow
County Fair.
