To embrace the holiday spirit, the Paper Clover campaign will move from October to November and December this year, officially launching on Black Friday! Running from November 29th to December 15th, we are thrilled that TSC is hosting this event during the season of giving. We can’t wait to see how much we raise for 4‑H Camp and Leadership Scholarships!
Keep an eye out for updated promotional materials for both the ornaments and Paper Clover soon!
Put smiles on the faces of your favorite 4-H and family members, helpers, and volunteers!
Pick up a pack of 4-H Sticker Sheets. Each 3.5-inch × 8.75-inch sheet includes include one Ohio 4-H sticker, plenty of 4-H logos, and inspirational reminders about leadership, resilience, perseverance, and innovation. Sold in sets of 25, these sticker sheets are great for rewards, personalizing belongings, scrapbooking, and sharing and trading, too.
Launching on October 7th, limited‑edition collectible 4‑H holiday ornaments will be available in Tractor Supply stores nationwide. Featuring three unique designs for 2024, these ornaments are sure to become a cherished family tradition for 4‑H’ers for years to come. 100% of the funds raised from ornament sales will benefit 4‑H.
On Sunday, October 6, 2024 there will be a pancake breakfast at the Fairfield County Fair, from 8-10 AM. Pancakes will be flipping in front of the Ricketts Hall on the north side of the fairgrounds, next to the Ed Sands Building. There will be sausages, fruit and drinks provided as well. Everyone is welcome! Breakfast is free, but donations are welcome and suggested to benefit the 4-H Endowment Fund.
The 4-H Endowment Fund was created to fund a permanent educator position in Fairfield County so that our children will always have access to the 4-H programs offered through Ohio 4H.
Join us at the pancake breakfast for a flipping good time!
The 2024 Endowment Donation Breakfast will be held at the Rickett’s Hall on Sunday, October 6th, from 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. (or until sold out). Come have some fun, enjoy breakfast and make a donation to the Fairfield County Endowment Fund. Money donated covers the cost of the breakfast and helps provide training and personal development opportunities for 4-H members today so they can be strong leaders tomorrow.
