We are excited to bring you happy news from our Valley Home 4-H! Our Club President, Callie Chrisman reports that the monthly club meeting will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 8 at 7:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Chrisman Ranch. With pumpkins, cornstalks, hay bales and beautiful fall leaves all about, the big ol’ barn will once again welcome 4-Hers inside! The Chrisman Ranch is located at 9840 Victory Ave. Our club officers this year are, Callie Chrisman President, Ben Fletcher Vice President, Walter Bynum Treasurer, Morgan Edgar Secretary and Cooper Bartholomew Sgt.-at-Arms.

President Callie and other 4-H members will be creating an exciting window display at Valley Home General Store. So much fun! Valley Home 4-H would like to send a huge, heartfelt thank you to our surrounding 4-H clubs that have so graciously offered their help during our rebuilding process. We appreciate each of you very much!
