On November 5, 2028 the Intercoastal 4-H Club had their monthly meeting. On November 7 the 4-H Club, along with the First Baptist Youth Group, we had a food drive at Speedy Stop. We will hold another food drive on December 13 at Speedy Stop. Please come and donate canned goods for POC’s food pantry.

On October 17, 2018 4-H members who raised animals participated in the Calhoun County Fair. We had an awesome time and we would like to thank all of our buyers and sponsors who participated in the Calhoun County Fair Livestock Auction.

We are very proud of all our members who participated in the fair.
