Attention All Clubs
If your club has been doing something fun, exciting, adventurous or new, we'd love to hear about it! Any club wishing to share what they have been doing with the rest of us submit your article and pictures to the Extension Office by the 3rd week of the month. We will then publish your activities in the following month's Clover and on our website. I can't wait to hear about what you have been up to!
