4-H COMMUNITY SERVICE OPPORTUNITY - PAPER CLOVER FUNDRAISER

Each spring and fall the Tractor Supply Company (TSC) and 4-H partner for the paper clover fundraising campaign.  For $1 (or more!) customers at TSC can purchase a paper clover and show their support for 4-H.  Seventy percent of the monies raised in this national campaign benefit state and local 4-H programs.   We benefit greatly each year in Warren County from the funds raised by TSC.

Please come out and show your 4-H pride and help our Queensbury Tractor Supply Company store raise funds.  Youth will work at the customer checkout counter with TSC employees or they can serve as greeters just outside the store’s entrance.   We know that when 4-H’ers are present in the store working with the TSC team, we can boost how much we raise by 40%.  Adult supervision is required for any youth participating.

Grab another 4-H friend or come as a club for a fun community service opportunity.  Call Michele at the 4-H office (668-4881) or email mlb222@cornell.edu to sign up to work a shift.
