Weeks 7-8 at Meade County

  Meade, LaRue, Washington, Russell, and Taylor counties all spent a week at Lake Cumberland 4-H together the 25th-28th.   It was an amazing week, with amazing weather.



Meade County has finally gone to camp!

Callie and I spent our week teaching a science class to the campers.  We learned about the Forces of Flight and got to make and shoot off straw rockets.  It was a blast.

When I wasn’t teaching a class, I spent time with my cabin of girls and took pictures for my agent.  Being able to go to the lake and cool off on the pontoon was a relief from the heat, especially since our class was taught in the boys’ storm shelter.

 All of our campers had a great time, and it was nice getting to know some of our 4-Hers better.  For many of our girls it was there first time at camp, but they had a wonderful week and were sad when they had to come home that Friday.

 After cleaning up and packing all camp supplies away when we got back, this past week has been spent brainstorming on ideas for our annual Farm Bureau Breakfast at our county fair.  Extension wants to do a promotional video showcasing what Extension has done for the community.  Callie and I have been contacting people and setting up video interviews and piecing together clips for an amazing video.

 For now, it’s all workshops and last minute preparation for our fair!
