By now, most everyone has probably written and sent thank you notes to their 4-H Fair award donors, sale buyers, etc. If you have not, please take time to do so! It's not too late! If you're not a big writer, that's okay. Just buy a greeting card or pop one off of your home PC and stick a picture in of you and your exhibit (or something). Thank you notes like that are worth a million bucks! Need an address? Call the Extension office, 815/732-2191.
