County 4-H Members Attend Texas 4-H Congress
Ryan Batla, Darren Hillger, Jill Hoelscher and Lori Hoelscher recently participated in the 2000 Texas 4-H Congress at the state capitol. With its focus of “Learning today, leading tomorrow,” the three-day mock legislative session allowed 250 4-H members to participate in committee meetings, debate on the floor of the Texas Senate and House of Representatives, and interact with 4-H press corps members or with lobbyists.
Highlighting the Congress were addresses by Agricultural Commissioner Susan Combs, and Representatives Robert Cook and Bob Tuner.
