Dear Lincoln, Logan, & McPherson 4-H Families,

Happy Fall! This is one of my favorite seasons of the 4-H year, as we get to reflect on 4-Her's accomplishments. Congratulations and kudos to all the 4-Her's who turned in Diamond Clover Applications and Record Books. We look forward to celebrating all the success of 2024 on October 27th. Please see information below and RSVP.

As everyone settles into the school year routine, the extension staff are also hard at work planning and beginning school enrichment programming. Keep an eye out for upcoming workshops and other fun 4-H activities! Even though the dust has settled on fair season, we are already looking ahead to fair 2025. We wish all our families a successful school year, but we can't wait for summer already!

Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns,

Miss Caitlyn
