Sanborn County 4-H News
Dog Training
Are you interested in showing your dog in 4-H? We will be having an informational night on Monday, May 13th at 7 p.m. at the 4-H Building in Forestburg. The plan is to introduce 4-Hers to the three different areas they can show in (when first starting in the dog project area) and to explain what they need to start working on. No Dogs on first night please.
After this initial meeting, our plan is to then set up training nights where we bring the dogs and work on the different areas of showmanship, rally and obedience.
Win a free movie ticket!
Last chance to enter your name in the early bird drawing! For every 4-H
project completed between now and April 29th, 4-H members can enter
their name in the drawing and get a chance to win a free movie ticket. All you
need to do is show your 4-H project to Sherryl at the Extension Office. On
Tuesday, April 30th, we will draw names out of the hat for
several free movie tickets!
Join the fun and see how many projects you can get done!
