Successful Project Work Day

April 1st! We had a successful Project Work Day! Pot luck lunch was had by all members and thier families. Projects were planned, designed, and worked on by all 4-Hers. Some made yummy snacks while practicing their cooking skills. Others worked on art and photography. Some even sketched and planned wood working projects. Our main success was contributing to our duty of Citizenship and Responsibility. Our club walked the area ditches and removed trash and cleaning up the Earth. We also discussed and investigated a few animal habitats!
