You get in free to the rodeo grounds, don't have to pay to park, its a great deal for a couple hours of your time. Reminder, members get to put this in their recordbooks under Promoting 4-H. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THAT HAS MANNED THE BOOTH THIS WEEK, WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL CALLS ABOUT JOINING 4-H. That is what manning the 4-H booth is all about......telling people about the great 4-H Program we have in Bexar County. How much fun kids have in 4-H and all the opportunities they have in their 4-H career. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;County Photography Contest is coming up fast. If you are interested encourage them to start taking pictures and get them ready for the contest. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The March Qualifying Horse Show entries have been mailed to your horse leader. If you have any members interested in competing in this contest, please share the entry form with them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are several awards available for adult volunteers and businesses that have donated to 4-H.
