Dandy Doers 4-H Club meeting minutes

The February meeting was held at Neal and Emily Caylor’s house. Eleven members and three visitors were present. Our club made a basket to be auctioned off at the 4-H Awards Banquet. It sold for $50. Our club chose to sponsor games at the fair. We also voted to donate a “movie-themed” basket to the student councils “Hope for Haiti” fundraiser that will be held April 24.

Neal Caylor gave a presentation on how to switch light and cover faceplates. Emily Caylor gave a presentation on how to make a marble board maze game and an ice sculpture. Emily Moorman gave a presentation on making a fabric strip rug. Refreshments were served by Neal and Emily Caylor and Emily Moorman.

Poll

So, the question this week is, “Will it stay or will it go?” The United States Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C. wants to close three Farm Service Agency offices in southern Iowa, which includes the FSA office in Centerville, and consolidate the operations in order to save money. Tuesday afternoon a meeting was held at Faith United Methodist Church to allow farmers and other producers who use the Centerville FSA office to make comments about the closing to John R. Whitaker, state executive director Iowa FSA. Many questioned if the meeting Tuesday was necessary because the decision had already been made.

A. Yes, because Washington will listen.
B. No, because the decision to close the Appanoose County FSA office has already been made.
