4-H Members participated in a Garden Project at the Peinhardt Living History Farm this Summer. JC Penney Afterschool Funds were used to assist with this
project.
Fur, Feathers and Friends - a pet club that met several times during the summer that taught 4-H members about animals and birds was a real treat for the participants.
