Jeannie announced to the group that Bossier Parish has the largest 4-H program in the region and eighth largest in the state. She went over the 2014-2015 Bossier Parish 4-H Highlights.
The birdhouse contest was discussed and the possibility of 4-H’ers entering their winning entries in the respective divisions at the state fair.
Community service projects mentioned:
· Elise Spoor of Elm Grove Elementary spoke about a horse rescue group in Jones, Oklahoma, needing medical care, finding homes for horses, monetary donations or hay, grain, other horse supplies. To find out more information, this is their website www.blazesequinerescue.com.
· Michelle Hammonds works with a project called Geaux Bags. These bags contain essentials for youth who are taken out of their homes and put into foster care. When the items are collected, teen members could pack the bags.
· Christi mentioned the Young Marines and will check with Walt on their needs.
· Salvation Army
· Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse in Bossier
· Erika – WERLA or Wildlife Education Rehabilitation of Louisiana, based in Shreveport, needs donations. (This is the group that was at Cypress.)
The committee took a vote and decided against the horse rescue group and WERLA. Jeannie and Erika will decide on the community service project for the upcoming school year.
Sarah Hammonds motioned to adjourn the meeting and Alison Smith seconded the motion. The meeting adjourned at 7:00 p.m.
