SCC 4-H Club Council Exec Board
Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2003
Attending: Vicky B, Shelby J, Deborah L, Hans T, Lonnie T, Jenel Vinzce, Bob T
Called to order by Vicky at 7:25 pm.
Gary Lang is absent so Jenel Vincze will take the minutes
Meeting started by a chorus of Happy Birthday to Hans and a piece of chocolate pie for each in attendance
Vicki: A new meeting room is being proposed for Board and Council meetings
due to lack of heat and attendance. We will use Art’s office for Board meetings
but will need to discuss other locations for Council meetings. The Turf Club at
the fairgrounds is first choice. Centrally located in the county but may also
need to look at going back to Berger Drive or possibly The Grange in south
county. We will know before the next meeting where the new location is to be.
Also, next month’s Council meeting will include an excerpt from the movie “Green
Promise” being brought by Lonnie T.
Congrats to John Haggerty. Daughter had her baby and 1st grandson
for John.
Deborah: W.R.L.F. Update: Location to be Sacramento in 2005. There is a possibility of help from Council for fees. Great opportunity for youth to come for the day on Saturday and help with the Flag Salute; also encourage youth to come for the day to CalExpo. Great Community Service opportunity for any club.
Vicki: Makes note that we gave no scholarships in 2003 and that there are monies available to use. Vicki will put an article in the TT for any interested college freshman to submit a “resume” of their 4-H history to the council. We also need to send a “Thank You” for the Kuhn family for their annual contribution. It was decided that we would inform them on its allocation. Hans will get contact information to Jenel for that note.
Bob: Large Animal Field Day is set for May 8 at Emma Prusch Park. 10:00am to 4:00pm. Planning committee (4-H & FFA) is currently recruiting sponsors for prizes.
