EVENTS


TEAMWORK 4-H HOMESCHOOL GROUP
Teamwork 4-H is a primarily homeschooled, Christian 4-H group that has been chartered  for two years. 

Presently, our club's main project areas are cooking/nutrition, sewing, photography, and raising an animal for LIFE fair.  There are a multitude of other project options; all we need is an interest and a project leader.    We need a leader for the Clover Kids group (ages 5-8).

Please contact Heather Smith at dino@granderiver.net if you have any questions.
