My Son is Treasurer!

Yesterday, we went to our monthly 4-H club meeting. It was very exciting! We spent most of the first hour electing officers. We actually ended up with a couple of ties and they had to drag out the rule book to discover what to do. We ended up having 7 boys and 7 girls and when the vote for an office was between a boy and a girl, the children went with the child of their own gender. This club hasn't been around very long and so many of the kids don't know one another yet.

Jack wanted to run for Treasurer. He practiced his speech before we went to the meeting. I was very proud ot him when it was his turn to stand up and tell others why he wanted to be treasurer. He got elected (he had two competing against him). He is very excited and yesterday he came home and was reading through his book so he could figure out a bit more about his responsibilities...

Ahhh...today a treasurer...tomorrow PRESIDENT!
