We just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!  to all of those who participated this past Saturday at Kid's Day in The Park! We had a very successful event and I am proud of all of you!

Also, we had great participation from our 4-H families in supplying cookies for Senior Citizens' Day at the East Texas State Fair.  Your assistance in supplying homemade cookies was a great help, and not a one was left over!  This was a super community service project!

Kudos to you all!!!
