Back to Business!


 Welcome to the 2021 - 2022 High Hopes 4-H Club year!

The annual meeting of  the High Hopes 4-H Club will be on Thursday, October 14, 2021, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m.  We need to elect officers, set the budget, review the HH Constitution, and choose our first project.  Lots to do!

We’re going to start all this here on the blog.  

You’ll see a separate post for officer nominations, and a separate post for project suggestions.  Please comment as appropriate.

Please review the Constitution ahead of the annual meeting.  It is here.   We may only change sections marked with green.  We should probably consider changing the sentences highlighted yellow to make it less specific so we can change meeting schedule at will, without having to change the constitution.  Maybe something like, "the annual meeting shall generally be in October, and the club shall meet for at least ??? business meetings per year."  You may comment on that page, or below.  We will need officially motioned and seconded change suggestions given at the annual meeting, which can then be voted on at the next meeting pursuant to Article IX.
