4-H chili supper and auction set for Feb. 27

Hot Springs County 4-H will be hosting a free chili supper for the public on Saturday, Feb. 27 beginning at 6 p.m. at the Hot Springs County Fair Building.

4-H members will be making desserts that will be available to the public for silent auction and by live auction. The live auction will start at 6:30 p.m. with Shawn McWilliams doing the auctioneering. There will be several desserts available ranging from fancy decorated cakes to pies, cookies and baskets.

Proceeds from the event will help 4-H members attend Washington Leadership Focus in 2017, several county and area leadership workshops and other activities such as livestock judging, shooting sports camp, 4-H camp, Showcase Showdown and the Wyoming State Fair.

“We are really encouraging 4-Hers to be actively involved in the judging areas and leadership events because it builds communication and public speaking skills and gives them insight of the different industries that they may want to pursue down the road as a career,” said Hot Springs County 4-H Educator Joey Johnson.
