Discussion items tonight:

-health issues that affect us here in SCC ->
Dan Chitwood is in very bad shape. He has given SCC 4-H for many years. Ronda R. was in to visit today to deliver the Leadership Overnight video tape, cards and pictures. Deborah L visited last week, also. Motion to establish a Dan Chitwood Scholarship account passed unanimously.

Lonnie T had surgery last Thursday, and it went well. Radiation and/or chemotherapy will be coming up.

-30% funding reduction in Cooperative Extension budget -> what this means to SCC 4-H: One approach is to have 4-H members/leaders contact their state legislator to tell them how much the 4-H program means to them. Have the members send their record book 4-H story as an example of the effect that 4-H has had on them.

-(welcome back to Fe)
