Mapleton 4-H Club has sporting focus

Almost nothing is more fun than spending time with friends and family playing some classic board games.

In the spirit of fun, the Mapleton 4-H club played some of the members’ favourite board games at their meeting on April 3 at Cathy’s.

The meeting opened with the roll call question, “What is your favourite board game?”

Before beginning to play games members practiced using parliamentary procedures and made motions to decide on the next meeting date. The group spent the remainder of the meeting playing some fun games with friends, including: Yahtzee, The Game of Life, and Guess Who?

The group then wrapped it up with cookies and juice for snack.

Winter games

Winter weather is a great excuse to stay inside. While inside a good way to pass the time is to play some board games. On April 17 the Mapleton 4-H club met at Lynne’s.

Roll call question was “What is your favourite outdoor sport to play in the winter?” Members spent the meeting playing Scrabble, checkers, chess, murder handshake and a member game, ninja.

On Friday April 27 the club went bowling. This gave members a chance to get out and have fun.

Final meeting

It’s the end of an era. On April 30 the Mapleton 4-H club held their final meeting for the sporting chance club.

We started the meeting at the Moorefield Park; the role call question was “What was your favourite sport we played in this project?”

Members grabbed frisbees and practiced throwing before playing ultimate frisbee. Then we played boys versus girls capture the flag, a tough match that involved a little too much mud. Then we headed back to Cathy’s, and learned how to play poker from some members. And with that we finished the sporting chance project.
