4 H Council Report

On November 29, 2004 the Kiowa County 4-H Council met in the courthouse meeting room at 7:01 p.m. The attendance was read by our Secretary Dally Lessenden. Those present were President Lana Weber; Milly Spady Vice President and Senator; Dally Lessenden, Secretary; Shalyn Laird, Treasurer; Carrie Roberson, Reporter; Jessica James, Dawn James, Leader Advisor. We had only one absence which our other Leader Advisor Brenda Fickenscher. Each club had four members and adults present.

Next, Dally read the minutes from the previous council meeting which were approved by the motion of Jessica an were seconded by Carrie. Then Shalyn gave the treasurer’s report. Jessica moved to ratify the treasurer’s report with the second of Carrie.

After that, Milly told everyone about the District 6 Night Owl. She said, "It was fun, we had a dance, played games, went swimming in the La Junta indoor pool and ate pizza." Gail Koeller gave a brief discussion on the Achievement Banquet. She told us that there was about 117 people present. Milly and Jessica talked about the District Senate. They said that they are planning on switching the officer training from la Junta to Lamar and instead of swimming we will go bowling. Bruce Fickenscher shared that the 2005 Leaders Forum will be in Lamar on October 14-16.

 

Old Business: the concession stand committee had nothing to discuss because the committee had not met yet.

New Business: The first thing was the 2005 budget. We discussed and approved. Jessica moved to approve it and Carrie seconded it. Next was the 2005 Calendar. Again Jessica made motion to approve the 2005 calendar with the second of Carrie. We also discussed the state dues. Shalyn moved for each 4-H member to pay one dollar and council pay the rest. Milly seconded it. We tabled the moving of meetings from Haswell, Eads and Sheridan Lake. Bonnie Lessenden made motion to table it and Jessica and Milly seconded it. Shalyn made motion to adjourn the meeting at 7:42 p.m. and Dally and Carrie seconded it. Meeting adjourned. No council meeting in December due to holidays.
