Special Edition Morrow County Fair & Rodeo • Heppner Gazette-Times. Wednesday. August 1 1 ,1999-Page 7 Fair snack shack benefits 4-H Leaders Council The 4-H Snack Shack produces the major source of income for the Morrow County 4-H Leaders Council. The council uses this income to provide such programs as 4-H camp, 4-H Teen Leadership Retreat, and materials for all 4-H program areas. The Leaders Council also funds many fair awards. All 4-H members benefit from the proceeds that are earned by the Snack Shack., said Bill Broderick Morrow County Extension agent. Many 4-H leaders help in the Snack Shack at fair. They do this because they understand how important the proceeds are to the 4-H program, he said. But, the leaders are so busy at fair it is not right to ask them to take care of their 4-H club and then work even longer in the Snack Shack, he added. Parents of 4-H members, this is an opportunity for you to help your children and your child's 4- H leader. Volunteer to help in the Snack Shack. Listed below are the different communities and the respective day managers. Please call them and volunteer to help at the Snack Shack.
