Treasurer Lane Ellefson read the treasurer’s report; there were no outstanding bills presented.

Committee Reports and Old Business:

Members completed the “Light the Park” Community Service project before the meeting by decorating a campsite. The fundraiser will benefit the new picnic shelter planned at Split Rock Park.

Members were reminded that the 2019-2020 online 4-H re-enrollment has opened and members can re-enroll at any time.
