Cloverbuds
The Cloverbud area of 4-H is a great opportunity for future 4-Hers (children ages 5-7) 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:
Aubrey Senska (11), Payton Uecker (5), Michael Hoffman (4), Tyson Eddy (4), Kade Olinger (9), Delaney Zoss (5), Bethany Niles (2), Bryce Larson (8), Isaiah Schultz, Caleb Kneen (4), Devyn Brooks (6), Henry Hunter (5), Blake Howard (5), Emma Niles, Acaiya Schultz.
