Leader College and El Paso youth support

Leader College is this weekend and I hope you are planing to attend, if not teach, at the event. In either case a couple of reminders. Registration begins at 9:00 am and closes at 9:30 am. Everyone that attends (including county and district personnel) must register and pay $15. If you are coming and did not register plan to bring correct change or a check.

By now I'm sure you are aware of the terrible accident that occurred in El Paso involving 5 4-H members. If not, 5 youth were burned badly in an accidental fire at a 4-H food booth fund raiser.

We will be taking a collection at Leader College in support of these families as they work through this tragedy. If your 4-H clubs or county programs are bringing checks, please make them payable to the Texas 4-H Foundation and put "El Paso 4-H youth" in the memo line.

We will facilitate the deposit of the funds after the event. For those of you wishing to contribute individually, I would encourage you to go to the Texas 4-H Foundation Website and make a contribution using "pay pal".

Till next time, Take Care,
Kevin
