The cooperative endeavor is still strong 64 years later. There have been changes since members no longer pay room and board with produce and women now reside in a house that they built in 1961. The house joined the Greek Panhellenic Council in 1980, making it a sorority. Some things have not changed. Prospective members still havc to have been in 4-H for at least five years.
Residents still cook, serve meals and clean to keep expenses at the house down.
Timeless Clovers have a chance to put their 4-H skills to use at the house. We thought it would be interesting to visit with some alums. With its many ties to McLean County, we could write a book on the subject. Since that is not possible we will highlight a few residents through the decades. Talking to one of the original 16 young women who started the house in 1934 was fun.
