Our 4H club hosted the program for the County Council meeting last month. The kids led the meeting- 3 of our kids are officers- and then we had invited a policeman to come and speak to the group.
After the speaker told us about the homeless in town who don't stay at the shelter, we made no-sew scarves to give out to the homeless. The cop who spoke started a group that helps the unsheltered homeless in our town. They are called "Angel Cops" and there are about 57 tents set up in "Tent City" now for these homeless people.
Our club purchased the fleece to make the scarves, and then all of the kids got to make one. They cut the fringe and then tied it in knots. I think we made 37 scarves, but don't hold me to that.
Of course some of the kids babysat siblings while the others made scarves. This little cutie thinks she is my son's girlfriend. She attaches herself to him whenever she can.
