Huntley Harvestors Picnic
By Megan Sunderlage
Current members as well as ?lumni from the Huntley ^^^Jarvestors 4-H Club took part in the anniversary picnic held at Deicke Park on June 13. Approximately 150 people enjoyed an old-fashioned picnic dinner of fried chicken, salads and homemade pies. The Huntley Harvestors Club is celebrating their 70th Anniversary. The club is the oldest 4-H club in McHenry County and one of the oldest clubs in the state of Illinois. The picnic agenda included dinner as  well as an opportunity for
current and past members to introduce themselves. Everyone shared their fondest memories of 4-H related activities and past club leaders explained how 4-H projects differed from present day project choices. Past leaders were gratified that the 4-H tradition has been carried on and current members looked through 4-H photo albums firom past decades.
We were very pleased with the picnic attendance and were fortunate enough to have alumni from as far away as New Jersey! Thank you to everyone who attended and made the
