From your County Extension Agent
First of all I would like to congratulate all
the 4-H members that participated in
the San Antonio Livestock Show. I know
you enjoy those family moments at the
livestock show, waiting for you turn to
show your projects. Also, the 4-H
members that went to the San Angelo
Livestock Show, I hope you all had fun
there. On Saturday, February 23 the
Maverick County Extension Office
conducted a workshop on 4-H
Photography, 4-H Fashion Show, and
Story Board. If you didn’t attended the
workshop you are more than welcome to
participate in these County events. The
Maverick County 4-H Fashion Show –
Story Board will be on Saturday, March
23 at 10:00 AM. Also the Archery
workshop was on Saturday, March 1 at
the MCJLS meeting room. The training
covered basic archery principles, District
12 rules, and important dates. The kids
also practiced out side the show barn.
We will continue practicing every other
Friday afternoon starting March 8th. The
Maverick County 4-H Archery
Tournament will be sometime in May.
The District 12 Shooting Sports Archery
Tournament will be on June 22, in
Benavides, Texas.
