The pledges were said. Roll call was answered by naming your favorite craft. Shooting sports and youth day at the Black Hills Stock Show were discussed. It was decided to have our annual chili supper on February 14th at the Alzada Hall. Money made from this fundraiser goes to the Alzada fire department and to the 4-H club. Anyone wanting to donate to the silent auction, please contact a 4-H member. After the meeting Michael had a demonstration on the desirability of grass. Lisa had pizza and snacks. The next meeting will be on February 14th at the Alzada Hall.
