A Valentine’s Ball is being held next month for area girls in grades kindergarten through 4th and the special man in their lives. Amy Green, 4-H and Youth Coordinator for Washington County, explains it is the second year for the father-daughter dance, which is held by the 4-H County Council. The event will feature dancing, games, a photo booth, refreshments and a corsage for each girl. There are also times ahead of the dance for girls to get their hair and nails done by 4-H members.

Green shares the money raised goes toward scholarships for 4-H members for a variety of programs, including trips. This spring 4-H students are able to go on an animal science trip to Iowa State University or a two-day trip to St. Louis, Missouri.

Registration for the dance is due by January 29th, and there is a total limit of 75 couples. It will be held February 6th from 6 to 8 p.m. in Dallmeyer Hall at the Washington County Fairgrounds and it is $15 per couple. For the registration form click here.
