4-H Club Officer’s Training

   On August 20th, at the Dallas Audubon they will be hosting the Annual County Officer Training with Rockwall, and Dallas Counties.  This will be a great opportunity for Club Officer's to either get a brush up for their duties as a club officer or learn from scratch.  It is also a great opportunity to make friends from neighboring counties that you will see at the district leadership events.
