Scotts Valley 4-H A Hit At The Scotts Valley Art, Wine & Beer Festival!

The Santa Cruz County and Scotts Valley 4-H club attended the Scotts Valley Art, Wine and Beer Festival, bringing not only a petting zoo with rabbits, horses, chickens, and goats that people could pet, but even more so, information about 4-H such as guitar, sewing, quilting, chain maille, Viking weaving, and leadership.

4-H members stayed cool while showing how to care for animals as well as presenting their considerable talents in chain maille, and Viking weaving. Scotts Valley 4-H was even able to do some fundraising through the petting zoo in preparation for the coming year’s activities. Santa Cruz County 4-H also brought information showing greater challenges and a wider variety of options for older members.

The next meeting for Scotts Valley 4-H will be held on Monday, October 12, 2015 at 6:30 pm. Come to the Santa Cruz County Fair and find the 4-H booths or see the Scotts Valley 4-H Website at www.scottsvalley4h.org.
