4-H’ers involved in the bucket bottle project are invited to attend an informational meeting on Wednesday, February 8 in the basement of Dallmeyer Hall on the fairgrounds. This department project meeting is open to all members and their families who have questions about how to get started or for those who are ready to learn more about advancing their project. Department superintendents will discuss animal selection, health, records, and fair requirements.  Bucket Bottle calf family mentors will also be available to connect with and ask questions. Record books and interviews are an important part of this project. Area and 4-H department superintendents will review those with samples. Past participants, please bring old workbooks and score sheets if you have them as samples to learn from. Workbooks and calf ear tags will be available for purchase as well. Junior members (4th-6th grade) plan to attend from 6 pm-7 pm, and intermediate/senior members (7th-12th grade) plan to attend from 7pm-8pm. Members earn participation points by attending these project meetings that will go towards their overall score at the county fair.
