Change!!!!

The District 9 4-H Web Page has changed!!!!!  I think you will like the look.  All of the old content you were accustomed to finding on the District 9 Web Page is there, but the layout has been updated to match the State 4-H Program.  The new page also allows us to do some things we could not with the old design, like, Blog.  So in the very near future this blog will discontinue :( and I will start posting all of my blogs on the new site.

At some point I hope to make updates on the new blog go out to County Extension Agents automatically.  Until then you may want to go to the Blog and include it in your favorite RSS.  In the interim I will try to be diligent about emailing you when I post items of interest in the new Blog.

So long eblogger, Hello Word Press,

Kevin

For the Record

Just a quick reminder:  Recordbook judging will be held tomorrow, July 7, 2010.  We have the names of those that volunteered for the event, but the more the merrier.  If you have extra volunteers bring them along.

Judges registration and serving of refreshment will begin at 9:00 am.

Bring your best attitude and be ready to be amazed at all the "stuff" our youth have done in this past year.

See you tomorrow,
