SEPTEMBER 4-H MEETING

The Tipton 4-H Club held it's first meeting of the new school year on Wednesday, September 2. Officers were elected for the current school year as follows: President - Jacob Waugh; Vice-President - Corey Jones; Secretary - Sonya Mitch; Reporter - Kayli Austin; Recreation Leader - William Julian.

The Tillman County Fair will be Sept. 10-12. All entries except animals are due at the fairgrounds on Thursday the 10th. Farmhand Olympics will be on Friday, Sept. 11th and all members are encouraged to attend and participate in that event. Parents must sign a permission slip for members to be able to attend the event. The Tipton 4-H Club is responsible for working in the concession stand on the 11th from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and on Saturday, the 12th, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Those showing animals should talk to Mr. White about when they should have their animals at the fairbarn in Frederick and what items they need to take to Frederick.

A point system will be in effect during the school year to reward the top five 4-H members with the most points. Each 4-H event, meeting or activity will have assigned points. At the end of the school year these "Top 5" will be rewarded in some way. Each month a member will be selected as Member of the Month selected each month. The member will be recognized at the Chamber of Commerce meeting on the first Tuesday of each month and have an article written about them for the Tipton Valley News.
