Did you know that farmers in Kentucky can make a
donation of $10.00 when renewing their farm license
plates to help raise funds for 4-H? The Ag Tag
Program is supported by the Kentucky Commissioner
of Agriculture Ryan Quarles. The money raised by
the program is evenly split between Kentucky 4-H,
Kentucky FFA and Kentucky Proud, which promotes
agricultural products raised, grown, or processed in
Kentucky by
Kentuckians. Last year
Kentucky 4-H programs
received $184,237 from
the Ag Tag Program.
These funds are split
between the county
where the funds
originated and the
Kentucky 4-H
Foundation for state
level programs. Daviess
County 4-H received
$3,353 of that sum.
That money goes straight into our 4-H Council
account where it benefits Daviess County 4-H’ers by
contributing to 4-H Camp Scholarships, leader
training and local 4-H promotional and educational
events. Please make sure you support our state and
local 4-H programs by encouraging farmers to make
this donation! We thank our farmers for their
continued support!
The 4-H Recognition Banquet will be Thursday,
April 20 at 6:00pm in Bittel Hall at the Daviess
County Lions Club Fairgrounds.
It’s Time for the TSC Paper Clover Drive!
The 4-H/TSC Paper
Clover Campaign is a
nationwide, in-store
fundraiser that benefits
4-H programming in
communities where a
TSC store is located.
We are fortunate enough
to have two TSC
locations here in Daviess
County. As a thank you
to the community for their support, we will have a
table set up for 2 days at each Tractor Supply
location. This will be an opportunity for our 4-H’ers
to show off some of their accomplishments, say
thank you to the community TSC shoppers for their
support of the programs, and gain some community
service hours by assisting customers with getting
their purchase to their vehicle. If you are interested
in joining us on any of these days in-store, please
call the Extension Office by March 24 to sign up.
TSC East off HWY 54 – April 29, 9-11am
and May 6, 9-11am
TSC West off Starlite Drive – April 27, 4-6pm
and May 4, 4-6pm
Please consider taking part in the Spring Paper
Clover Campaign April 26 through May 7 by
accompanying us in-store and by purchasing a $1
Paper Clover at checkout to show your support for
the
Daviess County
4-H program!

District 6 North 4-H Horse Camp is scheduled for
May 19-21 at the Union County Fair & Exposition
Center in Sturgis. Registration forms and fees are
due March 18 and are available at the Extension
Office. All adults attending must have completed the
4-H Extension Client Protection process. Contact
Stacey at the Extension Office if you have questions.
We spent our February meeting talking about
livestock judging, specifically cattle. Our adult
leader, Daniel Hayden, is planning another meeting
for those interested in Livestock Judging on March 9,
at 6pm.
Area Teen Retreat Districts 6 and 7 are teaming up to put on an Area Teen Retreat to be held at West Kentucky 4-H Camp
April 7-9. This retreat is focused on leadership and getting to know other teens from the area. If you
are interested, please contact Lindsey at the Extension Office. Registration is due March 10 so call today!
At our meeting we learned about health. Ms. Angie
helps us a lot with health and art. It was a really fun
meeting. We use parliamentary procedure for our
meetings. We have a president, secretary and
reporter. At our next meeting we will be doing a
character survey.
Camp is open to youth 9-15 years of age. The cost is
$195 or $185 if paid in full by May 1. The fee
includes meals, lodging, transportation, a t-shirt, and
a fun filled week you’ll never forget! Spaces fill
quickly, please don’t wait until the last minute!
As always we are looking
for teens (16-18) and adults
to serve as volunteers at
camp. If you are interested
please contact us. All
volunteers must go through
a screening process which
includes a background check and an interview.
Parents, please be aware we can only accept the
number of campers we have the adults to supervise.
Please consider serving as a camp volunteer to
ensure we can take as many youth as want to attend.
If you can’t attend, maybe you know someone who
can!
