4-H Goat Expo -- Review

The 4-H Goat Expo at MSU was held yesterday. Both Bethany and I were out to represent MDGS. We had a table with some posters and promotional flyers, and got to talk to some people about the club. Then we both went off to work as judges.... Bethany at the quiz bowl and me at the problem solving. After listening to some of the 4-Her's presentations, I was pretty sad that I'm no longer in 4-H and am not eligable to participate in the event! If you are in 4-H, though, I encourage you to go next year! It sure did look like a lot of fun. The events held were:
Photography Contest
Cookery Contest
Craft Contest
Judging Contest
Quiz Bowl
Skill-a-Thon
Illustrated Talks
Problem Solving
And more! Sounds fun, doesn't it?

More posts will be coming soon, concering upcoming MDGS Events. Also, here's a reminder: The deadline for early registration for the GLOM show on Memorial Day Weekend is May 8th. Make sure to get your entries mailed out before then. Hope to see you there!

4-H Goat Expo -- Update

Okay everyone, here's some more on the state 4-H goat expo.... it's being held at the Anthony Hall at MSU (where Spring Goat Day is every year). It starts around 7:30 am in the Pavilion, though. Around 9:00 am everyone goes on over to Anthony Hall. It ends in the afternoon around 2 or 3 I believe, but don't quote me on that! :) I am positive about the start times, though!

4-H Goat Expo

April 24th is the 4-H goat expo at Michigan State University. Bethany Schreur and I will both be there helping out with various things, and we will also have an MDGS promotional table set up. Come on out and see us!
I am working on getting the details from Mrs. Kast, and will post as soon as I know details such as times and schedules. I do know that there will be a quiz bowl, skill-a-thon, and other such activities, and for those of you who haven't participated in those before: it's a lot of fun!

See you then! ;)
