November was a time to celebrate the accomplishments of our club members and leaders over the past 4-H year at the Larimer County 4-H Achievement Night and our November club meeting. So much work and time went into making 2023 a success and we’re so proud of your efforts!

At the Colorado State Fair, our club had 42 entries and 24 received either a Reserve Champion or a Champion and of those, 10 went on to win Overall Grand Champion or Overall Reserve Grand Champion. INCREDIBLE!
