Description

Seeing double
July 17, 1958 Two sets of mischievous identical twins from Shawnee county kept Rock Springs staff and campers in a state of utter bewilderment during the annual camp session of Shawnee, Reno, and Atchison counties, July 6-9.
Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Davis, Rossville, are the parents of Dean and Gene Davis, pictured on the out-side. Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Glenn, Topeka, are the parents of Ron and Don, pictured next to the Shawnee County 4-H Club Agent, Merle Eyestone, who is in the center.
Ron and Don are members of the Shunga Valley 4-H Club and this is their second year at Rock Springs Ranch, State 4-H Center. Gene and Dean are members of the Rossville 4-H Club and this is their third year at Rock Springs.

"Cowhands” of the old west
Shawnee county 4-Hers attended county camp at Rock Springs July 6 to 9. The Old West was theme of the camp program. The "cowhands" or group leaders pictured left to right are Nancy Evans, Dianne Danford, Reno county; Roberta Carpenter, member of the Rochester Heights 4-H Club in Shawnee County; Harriett Kreider, Atchison county; Ginger Shannon, Rossville Rustlers 4-H Club in Shawnee county; and Billy Thompson, member of the Rochester Heights 4-H Club in Shawnee county. Roberta Carpenter was camp song leader.
One unusual feature of the camp program was a ball game at 4:30 in the morning. Another highlight of the camp was a cook-out Tuesday evening. Merle Eyestone, Shawnee 4-H Agent, and Annabelle Long Home Economics Agent were present. Other 4-H leaders from Shawnee were Mrs. Eugene Smith, Mr. Bob Phillips, Mrs. Elwin Niccum, Mrs. Howard Dexter, and Mardy Edwards.
