The Washington G.E.M. 4H Club in Cass County met on Sunday, October 4th, for their regular meeting and installation of officers.  Due to COVID the club was unable to celebrate their 100th Anniversary last year so plans are again in the works to celebrate this coming year.  This week also starts 4H week so members of the club decorated the window at Bonnesen’s in downtown Atlantic and also the display case at the Atlantic Public Library with memorabilia of the clubs last 100 years.  Club members also displayed posters in the schools and at Oathoudt Farm Supply explaining what 4H is about and how to join!

A member who did their presentation on drones and the use of them in farming applications was able to take a great photo of the club celebrating 100!
