The Good Neighbors 4-H Club will be celebrating its 80th anniversary with a reunion and program on August 29 from 1:00-4:00 p.m. at the Johnson County Fairgrounds.
Former, current and future Good Neighbors 4-H Club members and volunteers are welcome to attend and share memories or bring projects and memorabilia from their time served in the club.
There will be reciting of the 4-H Pledge, songs and skits from times spent at 4-H Camp, a 4-H demonstration and time for sharing stories. There will also be a collection of materials to be included in a time capsule that will be buried at the Johnson County Fairgrounds during 4-H week in October. The time capsule will be unearthed upon the 100th anniversary of the club.
Several dignitaries have been invited to commemorate the occasion. The program will start at 1:30 p.m. and refreshments will be served.
