St. John 4-H will participate in a 4-H holiday wreath collection. Each 4-H member AND / OR each club can create a holiday wreath for a door at the Veterans home! Make sure you add a touch of 4-H inspiration. Points and ribbons will be awarded for the best wreaths from each school and what school club had the best wreath overall!
