Throughout the year, our members participate in Drama Fest, Basketball, Christmas Caroling, Speaking Fest, Music Fest, Community Service Projects, the promotion of June Dairy Month, individual projects, and many other activities. And, of course, the Brown County Fair in August is still the main event each year for our members.
Because of our excellent club project leadership, our members have taken projects as varied as cake decorating, maple syruping, photography, woodworking, crafts, animals, sewing, ceramics, rocketry, and many things in between. While participating in these activities, the members are learning skills that can lead to a rewarding hobby or even a challenging career.
Everyone looks forward to the fun-filled, educational, and rewarding experiences each new 4-H year brings for our members and their families. And “families” is the key word. The Wrightstown 4-H Club stresses family participation in all activities. The family oriented philosophy has guided our club for over a half century and will continue being our focus going forward.
