• Games Clinic - Tomorrow (June 30) is the Games Clinic with Cassie Sprenger – It runs from 11 am to 2 pm. The cost is $35 dollars due to Cassie at the time of the clinic. And I was just going to have each member pay Cassie directly. Its a 4 hour clinic from 11-2 with a 15-20 minute break mid way through. Lunch-snack on your own.

The scholarship can be claimed only once in a 4-H year (October 1 – September 30). In order to receive your scholarship, you must complete the application and return it and a copy of your receipt from the clinic.
