Are you interested in a livestock project but need funds to move forward?
This program from the Bank of Colorado offers 4-H and FFA members an interest-free and fee-free loan for their livestock projects. Check out the details, and then find your local branch at this link.
Achievement Night is this Friday, November 2 beginning at 6:30 p.m. I hope you all plan on attending. There are members in our club who will be receiving awards so it would be great to show support to them. I also know there will be dessert. It starts with a slideshow, and there are pictures of several club members included. Join us in the exhibit hall at the McKee Building.
Our community service Turning Pens for the Troops will be on Sunday, November 4 at Woodcraft. Members including Cloverbuds and any new members are encouraged to come and turn a wood block into a beautiful pen to send to our service men and women. There is plenty of instruction available so no experience is necessary. Please sign up on the club website under Signups. If there is a time filled up and that is what works for you, email Cindy and we can probably work you in. We need to fill all the time slots as there are over 100 pens to create.
The Foods Project meeting for November will be held next Monday, November 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the McKee building. Anyone interested in a foods project, please attend.

This Friday, October 5 there is a Cloverbud Safety Program/Tour at Fire Station #3 (900 South Wilson Avenue in Loveland) starting promptly at 6:00 p.m.
There is a club meeting at 7:00 p.m. this Monday, October 8 in the McKee Building. There is also a Get to Know 4-H Open House occurring at the same location from 5:30–7:30 p.m. Please invite your friends to attend the open house, then join us for our club meeting.
The Adams, Easthouse, and Rogers families will be attending the Open House to discuss our club and shooting sports. If there is anyone else that would like to attend, this is a community service and demonstration opportunity.
This is our first meeting of the 2018–2019 year. For our returning members, this is a great opportunity to get your demonstration done early and not have to worry about it later in the year. Bring that display board from fair and get it done early! Sign up by visiting this page.
Our Foster and Adoptive Families are collecting gently-used shoes as a fundraiser. We are attempting to collect 2,500 pairs to raise over $1,000, which will be used to purchase shoe gift cards for the kids for the next school year. Please bring shoes to the meeting on Monday.
