Officer Know How

Fall is the time of year when many groups elect new officers. Many people are hesitant to take the plunge and give an office a try - but there are many rewards to be gained by serving in an officer role.

Officer endeavors help members to learn:
  • Responsibility
  • Interpersonal Skills (how to work with others)
  • Communication Skills
  • Leadership
  • Self-Confidence

Officer duties vary per organization and officer role. Set a goal to try out a new officer role this year. Who knows what you might learn!

Popcorn Harvest

The only good thing about this year's popcorn crop was the little time needed for shelling. I got 1.5 poppings out of the crop. It did taste good!

Our sweet corn crop was similar. We hope for better next year.
