The North Country 4-H Club meets the second Monday of the month at 7 p.m. in the basement at St. Paul's Lutheran Church. Fun, games, community service, and planning for the fair are just some of the things the club enjoys!

Lollipop Tree

North Country 4-H hosted over 85 children at the this year's Easter Egg Hunt held on April 3, 2010. A special thank you to Steve Hoff for again donating the beautiful wooden Easter Bunny Baskets. The sunny day made a fun day for all! The lollipop tree was a great time for all, along with the coloring contest and egg hunt. Each child went home with a prize.

The grand prize winners were:

PreKindergarten - Abbey Fall and Karl Kobernick - Wooden Easter Baskets

Kindergarten - Grade 2 - Samantha Kalk and Oscar Brickel - Wooden Easter Baskets

Grade 3 and Up - Josh Severson and Brittney Davidson - Bop Its

Prize winners pose with the Easter Bunny, played by Marshall Kemling, in front of the concession stand in the village park. The day was mostly sunny and temperatures hovered near the 60 degree mark, much better than other Easter time events held in the snow such as the March 22, 2008 Easter Egg Hunt .

North Country 4-H starts out the new year noisily in 2010.

The 4-Hers went bowling Sunday, January 31, at the New Richmond Bowling Alley. Everyone had a great time and what a fun way to spend an afternoon! It was awesome!

The new year of 2010 is just beginning. Club members enjoy various activities in and out doors during the winter. Spring gets its first kick-off when the club hosts the annual Easter Egg hunt. Watch for a photo essay on the event.
