The last meeting of the Hardin Co Hootenannies was opened by President Megan Williams at the Ag Credit meeting room. We like the opportunity to meet in their fine place. Megan asked Levi Beiler to lead the 4-H pledge and Miranda Holbrook to lead the American Pledge. Roll call found 11 members present.
Our t-shirts are being printed. We all signed a Thank you to Trupointe Co-op in Uniopolis for donating the money to purchase the members’ t-shirts. We are all very appreciative.
