Modoc County
This year we had 5 clubs compete it our
County Club Awards event. Each club
gave a fantastic presentation, giving a
overview of what the 2018/2019 year
looked like for their club. You could tell
all of the clubs put a lot of time and effort
into practicing and polishing their presen-
tations. Awards were given as follows:
1st Canby 4-H
2nd New Pioneer 4-H
3rd Tie Surprise Valley and Bieber 4-H
Many thanks to all the club leaders, par-
ents and volunteers who helped our youth
with there presentations. I hope we see
many more clubs participate in this event
next year.
