The regular monthly meeting of the Prairie Rose 4-H Club was called to order by President Mallory Heim on Sunday, June 12, at the Moran United Methodist Church.
It was Parents’ and Grandparents’ Night. The Cloverbuds led the group in the Pledge of Allegiance and the 4-H Pledge.
Roll call was “Introduce your guest(s)” and was answered by 18 members, three cloverbuds, and two leaders. There were 21 guests in attendance. A quorum was present.
The secretary’s minutes were approved as read and the officer reports were all approved as given including the Treasurer’s Report, Reporter’s Report and the County Council Report.
Community leaders, Kelci Botts and Angelea Heim, reminded the club of upcoming events, fair details, and fair entry deadlines. Reading project leader, Kelci Botts, reminded the reading kids that the tour of the Iola Register held on Tuesday, June 14.
Dairy Project leader, Kelci Botts, recapped the experience and tour of Skyview Farm and Creamery at Pleasanton that the dairy kids were able to attend.
There was no old business and no new business to come before the club.
The Vice President led the program which included a talk by Mallory Heim, “How to make a packing list,” and Kylee Resco gave a talk about “The Benefits of Goat Milk.”
Recreation leader, Kaden McVey, led the club in a game of Bottle Flip Tic-Tac-Toe. The members played against the parents and grandparents.
The club then went outside to hold the annual flag retirement ceremony. The ceremony was coordinated by Alumnus Jennifer Jackman, and led by the officer team. The club retired only one flag due to weather conditions, but will retire the remaining flags at a later date.
The meeting concluded by reciting the 4-H motto. The Resco family was the host this month.
The next meeting will be 8 a.m. Saturday, July 23, at the Riverside Park Pavilion following pre-fair clean-up.
