The council uses this income to provide such programs as 4-H camp, 4-H Teen out o u r course... R e a so n a b le r a t e s ! G re a t c o n d itio n ! 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. 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. But, the leaders are so busy at fair it is not right to ask them to take care o f their 4-H club and then work even longer in the Snack Shack. 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. If yoU can’t help the day your community is responsible for the Snack Shack, just volunteer to help whenever you can.

Here is your chance to see what is great about Morrow County youth — attend the Morrow County Fair Awards program , Saturday, August 17, at 4:30 p.m. in the Wilkinson Arena. The Awards Program is a must for 4-H youth, parents and leaders and anyone who enjoys young people. All fair categories are recognized at the Awards Program, 4-H and open class. It is always fun to see youth receive the traditional “Grand Champion” and “O utstanding....” awards. But is also fun to see younger members receive the “Champion Junior Cookie Maker” or “Most Enthusiastic Begimier Livestock Member” awards. Most awards are purchased by the M orrow C ounty 4-H Leaders Council with funds raised by volunteers through the donor cam paign or Snack Shack operation. These awards are separate from fair prem ium awards. Every youth who completes project requirements, registers for fair on time, and competes is a winner. E ncourage family, neighbors, and friends o f 4-H members to attend the awards program and congratulate youth for their participation in the 2002 Morrow County Fair.
