Special Edition • Morrow County Fair and Rodeo • Heppner Gazette-Times, Wednesday, August 9.2006 - Page 7 4-H Snack Shack ready to feed the hungry crowds 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 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 of 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. Please call the Extension office at 676-9642 if you are interested. See OMSI at the fair For over 50 year the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry has been inspiring wonder in their visitors. Their exhibits are innovative, entertaining, interactive, and educational. Come see OMSI Wednesday through Saturday at the Fair, in the old Beef Bam. There will be hands on science for kids of all ages, so come experience some fun and learn about science.
