Thrills and Skills hosted a Winter Fair on December 6th.   This is an opportunity for new 4H'ers to have some of their items judged in a simple - super friendly atmosphere, for different clubs to socialize and share with each other, and to begin to celebrate the Holiday Season. 

(Thanks for the extra pictures Mr. Fountain!)

We had a craft project going on making ornaments on styrofoam balls with recycled holiday fabric.  (Thanks for the great craft idea Mrs. Fountain!)

There were also cookies to decorate - as Nessa so clearly enjoyed.......

 and more importantly - cookies to EAT!  Our mascot, Beibhinn - seems to think this is a SUPER IDEA - along with Maggie and the LoPorto guys!

 Yup - smiles all around!

 Grace and two of our guests are working on SURVIVOR BRACELETS.  How appropriate that the US Flag got into this picture.  We are collecting items and sending 16 sailors on the USS Stennis (an aircraft carrier) Holiday Cheer Packages.  We made each of them a survivor bracelet too.....

 Here Kathleen judges a project that Maeve made - a wreath made from recycled coffee bags. COOL -

 Madison - Mel - Ingrid and Liz enjoyed an evening of socializing - and a bit of judging. THey are all TEEN AMBASSADORS at the County Level.  Nice job girls.

 Here is a really neat YULE LOG brought in to be judged.
