The Hardin County Hootenannies met at  Faith Holbrook's farm.  President Faith opened the meeting by asking Seth Davis to say the 4-H Pledge and Miranda Holbrook to do the American Pledge.  There were 7 members present.  Our advisors asked if any members needed any last minute help trimming or clipping our animals.  A reminder that on September 4th  at 2:00pm at the fair grounds will be goat pen set up.

After the meeting we worked on showmanship skills with Faith's goats.  Advisor Grant Mizek stood in as our acting judge.  We were reminded of many important aspects of being the best showman we can be.
