The Square-B 4-H Club started their Oct. 12 meeting with competitive volleyball and dodgeball games, along with food around the bonfire. A business meeting followed where 11 members answered rollcall with their extracurricular activities. Elizabeth Lewis was a guest and future member. Katelyn Hicks led the club in singing Happy Birthday to Henry Kramer. Members voted to have a float in the Veterans Day parade.

Recreation was bobbing for apples and parts Identification from the morgue. Members had to reach into a mystery box and guess what “body part” they felt. The meeting ended with a hayrack ride.
Next Sunday members will be interpreting the song “King of My Heart” into American Sign Language for 4-H Sunday at Colony Christian Church. Our next meeting will be outdoors on Nov. 9, weather permitting. It will also be invite-a-friend night. Anyone interested in joining 4-H is welcome.
