Cloverbuds
The Cloverbud area of 4-H is a great opportunity for future 4-Hers (children ages five through seven) to get a head start on 4-H and to get the feel of what 4-H is all about. At Achievement Days, Cloverbuds can show in any area of static exhibits and small animals. Once their exhibits have been shown to the judge, they get to choose their own preferred color of ribbon.
Sanborn County Cloverbuds who exhibited at this year’s Achievement Days include: Brady Larson (5), Michael Hoffman (3), Carver Lindsey (20), Delaney Zoss (7), Ivy Edwards, Mya Edwards, Allison Britton (7), Kade Olinger (7), Bryce Larson (5), Camden Jost (7), Chance Berwald (2), Caleb Kneen (5), Toby Kneen (4), Aubrey Senska (12), Blake Howard (4), Bailey Feistner (12), Trista White (10), Emily Ohlrogge (7), Ashlee Hanson (5).
