Briggs 4-H

Apr 2, 2010

Ever wonder what 4-Her’s do? They are busy for sure! Read the following Featured Club Happening, to find what has been happening in the Briggs 4-H club submitted by club leader Tina Thrasher.

Each year our Club grows more and more; we have about 75 kids. This year our projects are Steers, Goats, Lambs and Pigs.

The Steer kids have already been working hard. They have had their projects since November and are all doing very well.

We will be getting our Lambs, Goats and Pigs in early April. The Pig project will soon be taking a field trip to Leonard Cruz's Farm where he raises his piglets, to learn all about castration, ear notching and vaccinations.

We held our annual Trick or Treat So Others Can Eat (TOTSOCE) Canned Food Drive in October and our Rotary Club Christmas Basket Canned Food Drive for the needy families in Santa Paula in December.

We are looking forward to seeing you at the "Western Nights and Carnival Lights" 2010 Ventura County Fair!!

The 4-H Featured Club Happenings is part of Cloverlines, our 4-H newsletter. These newsletters can be found on our office website.
