4-H Clever Clovers Meeting #2

By Ali Gemmer

Clever Clovers 4-H Club had their second meeting at Grace Bible Church on March 2 from 6:30-7:30 p.m.

The meeting started out with a group activity and then was called to order by Vice President, Hannah Bartley substituting for President, Erin Richardson.  The 4-H pledge was led by Bobby Spath and Rachel Spath began the meeting with a Service Project update.  Then, Lainey Werts gave a Health and Safety Report over “Food Born Illness.” After this, Clever Clovers began their first Group Ohio Agricultural Activity that will happen every meeting in the future.

Advisor Marie Markward told the members to bring a jar of soil to the meeting before and then split the members into small groups. Members who brought in soil had to fill the rest of their jar almost all the way to the top with water, shake it, and record the results of settling soil over time.

While they waited, they made a poster of five or more important facts about soil with the help of a library book and worked on different questions and activities on paper over the soil information they learned. They concluded the meeting with snacks and drinks.

The next meeting will be held at the same time and location on Monday, March 16.
