Pipe Creek Lakehills 4-H inaugural meeting has great participation
By Linda Williams
PCLH4H Rabbit Project Leader
September 14 saw a great turn out at the first official meeting to kick off the new Pipe Creek Lakehills 4-H club at the Lakehills Community Center. Local families and their children met with the 4-H club and project leaders to begin the start of the Pipe Creek Lakehills 4-H Club in Bandera County. The meeting was called to order and ran by the newly elected club officers.
A fun and educational presentation on the importance of hydration was given by County Council Member Thomas Reyna and FCS Agent Jessica Faubion. Some of our club members even made “smoothies” riding a “smoothie bike!”
The club discussed several projects that are underway. For those who only associate 4-H with the stock show, our club emphasizes a love those projects, however, there are many other projects to help 4-H members develop 4-H life skills and sense of community.
Currently, we have PCLH4H Project Leaders to help teach about Veterinary Science and Rabbits. We are looking for more project leaders based on the interest of the 4-H members.
4-H projects include photography and video, fashion and interior design, food and nutrition, shooting sports, public speaking, citizenship, leadership, entomology, computer science, horticulture, robotics, theater and performing arts, different meat animals for stock shows and much, much more.
4-H has a strong foundation in supporting our local community and from the first meeting the students began brainstorming on how our club could give back to the community in addition to setting goals for its members. Look for us as the volunteers at the Cajun Fest in Lakehills on Saturday, Sept. 25.
4-H is a community of young people across America who are learning leadership, citizenship and life skills. 4-H is about having fun, learning, exploring and discovering. In 4-H, young people make new friends, develop new skills, become leaders, and help shape their communities
