Something Fishy at Millarville 4-H Multi Club

(Grassroots Page 7)

Hello again everyone, this is Kashley Meyer with an update on the Millarville 4H Multi Club. What a wonderful time we have had since I last reported.
On December 18th the Millarville racetrack was home to the 2nd annual reindeer races. What a blast everyone had. The track was divided down the middle with a reindeer in each lane. The reindeer were harnessed and a ski rope attached to them. Once the gates were open the reindeer took off down the track with 4H participants holding the ski rope following behind them at a high rate of speed.
The participants went out and practiced the night before and were helped by the reindeer trainers and helpers. We were instructed how to race and how to be safe. It was cold but very exciting.
Prior to the races we had hay rides, Christmas carols, games, hot chocolate, hot dogs, prizes and a large bonfire. Thank you to everyone who helped make it such a wonderful day.
We also had our meeting on the 16th of January, after the meeting it came time to cook our dishes. The food selection this month was seafood. It was all very scrumptious.
Jessica made Classic Shrimp Scampi, Haley made Crabby Bites, Jade made Crab Quiche, Jenissa made Bacon Wrapped Scallops, Denae made Crab Stuffed Mushrooms, Kashley made Fish Cakes, Katelyn made Seafood Salad and May made Tuna Casserole. We also had White Wine Shrimp, Tuna Melts and Honey Ginger Shrimp.
After we had cooked our dishes and all of us had eaten, we practised our Public Speaking speeches and impromptu speeches for our next meeting.
