4-H FAIR WILL FEATURE FOOD SALE ON AUGUST 13
by Sharon Reser, reporter, Shawnee County 4-H Council
At 7:00 pm on the first evening of the 4-H Fair a food sale will be held. Items to be sold will be cakes, nut and fruit breads, gingerbreads, and cupcakes. This is being done to stop the great amount of waste we have had in previous years and to raise the premiums, by use of the profits, of the food preparation classes. A portion of cake and breads will be left on the plate with the ribbon and the other two will be grouped in dozens to be sold. We hope this plan will work and ask your attendance.
At the July 10, 1958, meeting of the Shawnee County 4-H Council four persons were selected by the Awards Committee to represent Shawnee County at the State Health Camp being held August 5 to 11. Those selected were Alice Verschelden, Sandy Hook; Jack Miller, Shunga Valley; Dorothy Comstock, Grove; and Cynthia Priddy, Bethel.
Darryl Priddy, Bethel, and either Kay Marie Moore, Wakarusa, or Sharon Reser, Rossville, were selected to go to State Junior Leadership Camp, July 30 to August 5.
The Council moved to pay one-half the expenses of leaders attending camps, etc., and all the expenses of special award winners.
The decision to count the Kansas Free Fair as an out-of-county event was revised. In all classes: with the exception of Livestock and Dairy, only blue ribbon winners are eligible to enter at the Kansas Free Fair. This is still an out-of-county event for Home Ec, Garden and Crops exhibits. This will enable members who cannot sell their livestock at the County 4-H Fair to be able to sell them at the sale at the Free Fair.
The Silver Pin Applications and the re-enrollment cards should be sent into the office with the record books.
Don't forget the Business Men's Picnic July 30 at Gage Park.
Mr. Eyestone gave explanations on the entering of exhibits at the County 4-H Fair. The community leaders of each club are to make the entries for their club members. The club members are to give the community leader their list of entries by July 26. The community leader then fills out the white sheets.
Appearing on the pink sheets should be the names of those who are going to judge, club booths, demonstrations, and club garden display. No Late Entries Will be Accepted.
Here are some important dates: July 24-25 - Eastern Kansas Judging School for Livestock & Dairy; Aug. 1 - K P & L Essay due; Aug. 6 - Style Show Judging, Kansas Teachers Bldg., 9 am; Aug 7 -Wheat Show; Aug. 7 - Council meeting; Aug. 8 - Demonstration Day, 4-H Annex Bldg., Fair grounds.
Due to lack of a piano there was no program.
