"Forever Green"

School is about out. After talking with some 4-H members yesterday, I learned that they will be out of school one day earlier than the calendar indicated. I asked the sixth grader why this was the case, “Well, we already have all our hours in, so we get to be done a day earlier!” She was definitely excited about this prospect.

The end of school signifies another “season” in the year of youth programming. I refer to this season as “T-Shirt Season.” Youth events are all about fun, learning, friends --- and the t-shirt. My t-shirt population is about to experience its annual growth spurt. Speaking of t-shirts, we could use your help, or your thoughts about our fair t-shirt.


Our theme is “Forever Green,” which will be printed on the t-shirt in some fun logo fashion. The question really is: What shade of green should we choose for the shirt? Should it be lime, kiwi, kelly, avocado, artisan, forest or none of the above? Which color is your favorite? Monday is when the big decision will be made. Mull it over, and let us know your choice. Red light, GREEN light – GO!
