MISS 4 - H

JEN BOOP IS NOW AN ASSISTANT 4 - H PROGRAMER AND SO TICKLED TO SEE THIS NEWS. KNOW SHE WILL DO A SUPER JOB...REALLY PROUD OF HER.

2012 WINNER IS...

THE BANQUET WAS LAST NIGHT AND MAYBE THE BEST BANQUET EVER. FOOD WAS WONDERFUL AS USUAL AND LOTS OF OLD FRIENDS. MADE SURE TO GIVE A THANKYOU TO THE 7 KIDS THAT HELPED US TO MOVE. STILL CAN'T GET OVER HOW HARD THEY WORKED AND CAN NEVER TRULY REPAY THEM FOR HELPING US OUT.
THIS YEARS WINNER , ALLIE BRININGER , IS ONE I AM REALLY EXCITED ABOUT.
YOU MEET SOME GREAT YOUNG PEOPLE GOING TO THE BANQUETS LIKE THIS BUT ALLIE IS SOMETHING A LITTLE EXTRA SPECIAL. I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF KNOWING HER ALSO THROUGH KELSEYS DREAM AND SEE FIRST HAND THE HARD WORK AND DEDICATION SHE PUTS INTO THAT GREAT ORGANIZATION. NOW OFF TO BE A NURSE AND I GUESS MY DREAM SOMEDAY IS TO SEE THIS RAY OF SUNSHINE A PART OF CAMP DOST . I KNOW KELSEY WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE THAT TOO.

WATERTOWN

WELL BIG NEWS FROM KATY AS SHE IS MOVING TO WATERTOWN TO TAKE A COUNSELING JOB WITH JEFFERSON COMMUNITY COLLEGE. SO PROUD OF MY 2ND WINNER.

MOVING

WELL...THIS ISN'T EXACTLY ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP BUT IN AN ODD WAY IT IS. BINK AND I MOVED THIS WEEK AND WITH CLOSING ON A WEDNESDAY IT MADE FOR AN INTERESTING MOVE. HAD NO IDEA WHO WE COULD GET TO HELP US GET FROM NORRY TO LEWISBURG AND THEN ONE DAY IT HIT ME...SCHOOL KIDS ARE OUT FOR THE HOLIDAYS. SO I CALLED THE AG SHOP AND TALKED TO LINDSAY AND WONDERED IF WE COULD GET SOME HELPERS AND OF COURSE I WOULD PAY THEM. WEDNESDAY ROLLS AROUND AND WE HAD 7 FFA KIDS AT OUR DOOR AND NO WAY WE COULD HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT THEM.
A PICTURE OF THE MOVING GANG IS IN THE PHOTO ALBUM.

MARK BENFER

WONDERFUL NEWS FROM MARK BENFER. LANDED A JOB WITH URS CORP IN WILLIAMSPORT AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENTIST. FIRST TIME I MET MARK AS A FRESHMAN I KNEW HE WOULD BE ONE OF THE SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS. A QUALITY HUMAN BEING AND THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT HIS MOM AND DAD. BEST OF LUCK IN THE NEW JOB.

CAMP DOST - CANCER CAMP

WELL CAMP DOST IS OVER FOR ANOTHER YEAR AND I REALLY DON'T KNOW HOW WE COULD TOP THIS ONE. ESPECIALLY FRANKS CINDERELLA'S CASTLE AND THE PETES DRAGON HE MADE. IF KIDNAPPING WAS LEGAL I WOULD HAVE BROUGHT AUDRIANNA HOME WITH ME. WHAT A PRECIOUS THING SHE IS AND AT AGE 3 SHE HAD STOMACH CANCER. LEFT CAMP WITH A HUG FROM MY SWEETY JULIA...ROBERTA'S TWIN. : )
