Dear parents,
Our last 4-H meeting of the year is this Thursday! But, we still have a few more activities after that. We'll be meeting at the Eubanks' house at 5:30. Here's what we're planning on talking/doing on Thursday.
We'll have a recap of the youth fair and the great job our members did at it. We'll talk about possible fair projects for next year.
Wendy Wilbur, Alachua County horticulture agent, will be talking to the club about community gardens. She's going to help us organize our long-term service project - a butterfly garden at Tower Road library! We haven't scheduled a date for putting the garden in yet, but it will most likely be a Saturday afternoon in May.
We'll also be talking about officer positions for next year and answer any questions the members might have.
We'll also be having an end-of-year party at the end of May, so we'll be talking more about that. We'll be holding officer elections then, so encourage your kids to be thinking about what office they want to hold.
And, we'll be having a parents' meeting May 15 to discuss what activities we want to do over the summer and what we'd like to do next year.
Last meeting, the kids were asked to identify a Floridian butterfly, their host plant, and their larval plant. Remind your kids to look for those. Here's a good resource for kids on butterflies - http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu:8080/wings/.
Please let me know if you can come and remember to bring your t-shirt money if you'd like a t-shirt!
Thanks.
Emily
