15 Minutes with Drew Crabtree, 2012 AHS Graduate
By Bailey Bowers

Where are you going to school and what are you studying?
I am currently attending The Ohio State University at Lima and I am majoring in Analytical Broadcasting and Practice with either a Music or Psychology minor. I am planning on making the campus change [to OSU’s main campus in Columbus] in the fall of 2015. When I get there, the plan is to stay in an apartment with a few of my Lima friends instead of living in a dorm. I already did that at Bowling Green, and I most certainly do not want to do that again.

The last meeting of the Hardin Co Hootenannies 4-H club was held at Preston Brien’s farm. We had 12 members present. President Megan Williams opened the meeting and asked Seth Davis to lead us in the American Flag pledge and Meadow Cromer to lead the 4-H pledge.

We decided on the colors for our T-shirts. Everyone ordered their size. They will be $8. Which is due at our next meeting. We hope to have them by the end of July for the Triathlon. All members should have paid their club dues by now.
