North Country 4-H is in full swing for the summer season. The St. Croix County Fair sign is up and this late summer event was just over a month away when the sign was put up.

"Fun in Our Own Backyard" is the County Theme this year. Thanks to the 4-H Dads for their hard work putting up the sign. The sign is located at the intersection of County Road H and State Highway 46.

The Easter Egg Hunt was one of the first spring events. North Country had a great day for the Easter Egg Hunt, with over 120 childern in attendance! The beautiful wooden Easter Bunny baskets were donated by Steve Hoff. Thank you! Thanks to the club and the community for all their hard work.

After the Easter Egg hunt the group held their May meeting and performed the unglamorous task of raking the village park up for summer.

The star of the event, the Easter Bunny, played by Connie Krueger.
