Well I'm not one to talk about myself, so I guess that is why I don't blog much. But Monday night was the counties 4-H awards night. This was part of our committee that should up for the night. Chris was honored to receive his 20 year 4-H leader pin. Chris and I were honored for being the co-chairs of the 4-H state leadermete last March 12-14. What made it great was our committee of 25 wonderful volunteers that helped put this together. It is a state wide training for all 4-H leaders from throughout the state of Utah. We had 214 leaders attend. We had over 84 different workshops for them to choose from. We had a private showing of Beauty and the Beast at the Heritage playhouse in Brigham city. We had tours of various things in Box Elder County. We had 2 motivational speakers. An Awards banquet. A country western bad "Roughstock" to play after the banquet for dancing. It was a hectis wekk but very enjoyable. The county asked if we thought that we should do it again? We said definatly yes. This is the first time that BoxElder County has done this. I am looking forward to go to leadermete in Utah county this year. It should be alot of fun. There is always so many neat classes to take. wether you use them in 4-H or just in your daily life. I have been attending for three years, which I would have been involved long ago. If I can get the picture up I will show you some of leadermete.
Our theme for Leadermete was, Golden Spike Country We Train Leaders" We had a logo of two trains meeting at Promontory. This is a picture of the registration table. We built kind of old train platforms throughout the conference. The other is of the train platform that took you to the general meeting room. Each classroom was named a name of an old railroad stop from the old transcontinental railroad. Then we had a contest to see how well they paid attention at the awards banquet. It was alot of fun!! But we had a committe that work on this with us for 18 months, to pull this together.
These are just a few pictures of Leadermete!!
