of us would never be able to do it. We can forgive no matter what the other person does.

Dear 4-Hers and Parents,

Hale County would like to reward members for hard work throughout the 2017-2018 season. Enclosed is a

requirement list to receive the two rewards. The first reward is an exciting ‘End of the Year’ trip decided by

Hale County 4-H Council. This trip will be well worth a little hard work. This trip is for all ages that meet the

simple requirements. The trip will be completely funded by Hale County. In order to receive this fun field

trip, service forms must be filled out and turned in to your club or the Hale County Extension Office

by June 30. This trip is to encourage everyone to come to the meetings and be active in your club.

The second reward is a check to reward members for their hard work throughout the 2017-2018 season who

have participated in Hale County and District 2 contests. As most of you know, going to the District 2 contests

can get expensive, so Hale County would like to thank all of those who have been active through the Hale

County Fashion Show, Food Show, Share-the-Fun, Roundup, Entomology, Quiz Bowls, Shooting Sports, and

so many other fun and rewarding activities. Therefore, if you turn in your required form by June 30, you

will receive a check for the amount of the District 2 contests you paid out throughout the year at the

Awards Banquet 2018. This is to encourage everyone to sign up for all those fun events and know it will be

rewarded at the end.

We appreciate every member of 4-H and we want to give back, especially to those who try new things and

making a difference to “Make the Best Better.”

Sincerely,

Hale County 4-H
