Friday 4-H Nugget
Dear 4-H Community,

We hope that you have enjoyed your Thanksgiving and have geared up for the 4-H year. Maybe you spent time working on a 4-H project or picking one out, its not to late to add another one! Many of our volunteers spent time at this year's Indiana 4-H Leadership Summit getting ideas for club programming. This past week we also said goodbye to Teresa Evans, one of our long time 4-H Support Staff members. We want to give her our best wishes and thank her for being such a great part of our team. As we move forward please be sure to reach out to our staff if you have any questions that we can assist with.

Sincerely,

Robert Kelly & Sthele Greybar

Leadership Summit
Special thanks to all the youth, volunteers and family members that attended the 2 nd annual Leadership Summit in Carmel a couple weeks ago. It was a tremendous experience being able to learn about topics such as making meetings more fun, the new record book, pollinators, etc. I hope you enjoyed the experience and will share what you learned with our 4-H community and encourage folks to attend next year! It was a fun-filled day!
