Hello Hollar Here,
As we start off on our NEW YEAR EXPEDITION I feel I should share
some Hollar Philosophy of inspiration, determination, and
constipation (opps I mean consternation)!
When possible be the windshield, not the bug. Be the bat, not
the ball. Be the honey not the bee sting. Watch where you step when
walking in a cow pasture, pockets of cow patties dot the field. You
will never win when pitted against a Holstein bull, walk away
alive, rather than duke it out and die (unless you have a rifle and
are a really, really, really good shot). Never touch an electric
fence without visually seeing if the fencer is plugged in or not
plugged in. Finally, do not test the cattle prod on yourself to see
if it is working, that is the start of a real bad day.
Have a great start to the new year and Go CTY Clark 4-H! Hollar

their parents and leaders and is the introductory program for

projects including music, drama, visual arts, and more!
4-H members will explore their own creativity while discovering
the great variety of 4-H Arts & Communication experiences
available to them now and in the near future. Session leaders will
be 4-H older youth, adult leaders and 4-H staff members with a
wealth of experience to share. Youth and adult participants will
rotate through a variety of sessions which are hands-on and active
and held at various sites throughout camp. Both youth and adult
participants stay in the warm and cozy heated cabins! All adults
will be considered camp chaperones. Camp begins Friday evening at
7:00 p.m. and ends Saturday afternoon at 3:00 p.m.
The $50.00 fee will include all materials and supplies,
(including a very cool ArtBeat! backpack!) special snacks,
overnight lodging and breakfast and lunch on Saturday. Why not get
a whole carload of youth and adults together from your county for
some genuine 4-H bonding time? Come join the excitement of this
opportunity available to some of our youngest (and often most
enthusiastic!) 4-H members!
