The Standard 4-H Club had their first general meeting on October 20, 2013 at their regular meeting spot in the Standard Library. 
We are starting up our new year with Robyn Zakariasen as our general leader for both the sheep and horse side of our club! We rolled into our meeting by doing our yearly elections!
They go as follows: President as Nicole Ellis, Vice President as Nolan Kathol, Treasurer as EricaLynn Skibsted, Historian as Breanna Seeley, District Junior Council Rep. as both Kelsey Kathol and Nicole Ellis and Club Reporter as Shaynna Duguay reporting the horse activities and I, Sarah Wolfs as the sheep activity reporter!
We went over some fun ideas we could do with our club throughout the 4-H year. Two ideas were, seeing if we can get a tour of the new Animal Care Centre in Strathmore and to go see the Custom Woolen Mills in Linden. We hope to be able to go to some places that will help us learn more about our projects!
We are purchasing a wreath for Remembrance Day again to place in front of the arena’s cross again this year.
There will be district meetings on January 15, March 5th and April 16 at the Strathmore Civic Centre. Members and parents are allowed to go if they would like.
Our club has decided to include “Cleaver Kids” program again. This program allows 7 and 8 year olds to participate in 4-H and learn the basics.
We have decided to sell cookie dough again as our main fundraiser for our club this year. There are many delicious flavors to choose from that will please the whole family. We have set a minimum amount of buckets for each member to sell. All orders must be in by November 10. Please get in touch with a member if you would like to purchase some and support our club!
We will also be doing tire recycling and electronic recycling to help us raise money. So please give us a call if you have any tires or electronics lying around!
