Treasure Seeker's Final Meeting

-Wow! What a great year Treasure Seeker's had! New friends were made, important life skills were learned and memories were gained. One of the most important things the club members could have learned was using the knowledge and skills we gained to glorify our great God. During May 4th's business meeting, we discussed our approaching book swap and end-of-the-year program. We adjourned the business meeting early, not only so the drama group could prepare for their play, but also because of the guest speaker the Mrs. Patti Crawford's fiance group was blessed to have. Ms. Shelly Gibbs (vice president of M & S bank) came and spoke to the group about credit. The drama group performed their women's rights play in front of our group, and had a wonderful time doing it! The group thanks Mrs. Patti Crawford (Finance leader), Mrs. Debbie Lazic (Drama leader), Mrs. Danielle Williams (Drama leader), Mr. Dravin Dixon (Forestry leader), Mrs. Cindy Picklesimer (Forestry leader), Mrs. Peggy Summy (Cloverbud leader) and all the other parents who helped make Treasure Seekers' wonderful year possible!-

4H Happenings-What we Did this Month

Treasure Seekers’ April meeting (4/6/09) was a very active meeting. Our business meeting was fairly short since we mainly only discussed old business (end of the year program, book swap etc…) and heard announcements from the moms. But since the business meeting was so short, we were able to dive right into our group projects! In finance, Mrs. Patti Crawford went through the 4H “Money Moves” book with her group; they also discussed the cost of credit and home mortgages. In drama, Mrs. Debbie Lazic led the group in a final rehearsal of the “Women’s Rights” play. The practice went well and the group plans on performing the play at the next meeting for the rest of the club. In Cloverbuds, Mrs. Peggy Summy, along with the help of other moms, led the group in building their own mini boxes. The Cloverbuds were all very proud of themselves, and they made it through the day without smashing any fingers! Treasure Seekers’ final meeting for the 2009 school year will be May 4, 2009
