Sherman County Agent Bruce Nisley impressed the crowd with a set of oral reasons, which seemed to break the ice for the 4-H members. Many members practiced their oral reasons after the clinic, and they showed some real talent. Special thanks go to the people who provided livestock for the clinic. The Western Regional Leaders' Forum is even better, and it's coming to Portland in 2003. All you need to do is come up with a theme or logo for the event.
Forms are available at the extension office.
The 2001 Western Regional Leaders' Forum is scheduled for March 14-18 in Sheridan, Wyoming, and they are looking for some great workshop presenters. The proposals are due by July 31. The volunteers will learn about aquatic ecology, tackle crafting, techniques for teaching angler skills, and angler ethics. After the workshop, the volunteers will be able to share their training with other leaders in the county who may be interested in starting a fishing club. More information is available at the extension office.
