The Lost Grove Leaders November 4 meeting was called to order by President Kallen Anderson. Pledges were lead by Maddi Hansen. Secretary Paige Anderson called roll. The members were commended for their participation at the Hillbilly sale yesterday. We were also encouraged to finish turn in our record books. Financial issues were discussed and it was decided that the club would pay part of each 4-Hers membership fee for this next year. New business: Kallen Anderson reported on the “Be Your Best” spa day which is sponsored by the Webster County Extension Office and will be held December 27. Enrollment forms and the Pick-a-Project papers were discussed and passed out to each member. The Officer training worksheets were also passed out to the new officers. It was announced that our installation of officers will include a potluck with the Lost Grove Go-Getters and will be next Sunday, November 11. We made plans for our December meetings which include making gift jars at our December 2 meeting and shopping for three kids chosen off the Angel Tree on December 8 with our Christmas party to follow.
