The third meeting of the Mapleton 4-H Life Skills Club (“A Walk on the Wild Side”) was held on May 1 at 6:30pm at club leader Lynne Flewwelling’s house.
The meeting was originally set for April 24, but was rescheduled due to poor weather.
The meeting was opened with the 4-H pledge lead by club president Marina Meulenbelt.
Everyone then walked back to the bush where they were told to remember the things they smelled, heard, saw and felt.
Members were also told to look for animal tracks so they could take molds. Members who found an animal track then made a mold of it.
On the walk back to the house members were told to find a rock they could paint the next meeting.
Jordan Dobben then read the secretary’s report. A discussion was then held about having a picnic club meeting.
Snacks were provided by Billy and Paxton Klasson and Felicity White.
