Sign up to help work the HLSR Concession Stand
The HLSR Progress Show will take place at the Washington County Expo Saturday November 5 – Sunday November 6. We have the opportunity to have the 4-H Concession Stand open to help feed all the exhibitors and staff. We need your help to staff the concession stand. Please take a moment to follow the link and sign up to work. Each slot is meant for a family name. Make sure that a parent is present to work. No youth should be in concession stand without a guardian.
Note – 4-H members will receive a meeting credit to be used during the year if needed.
