Need a kid-free night?
The holidays are approaching. I don't have kids so I have only an inkling of how crazy it must be to do your holiday shopping with your little ones in tow. The amount of respect I have for the moms and dads I see at the mall wrangling their kids, while trying to shop is HUGE. That being said...take a night off from the kids and let them hang with 4-H Teens at Spire Climbing Center.

Interested in joining 4-H?
Of course your are!
"But...there is soccer, football, dance, church, homework.....AND we don't have a yard for a cow or pig."
Haven't you heard?! 4-H isn't just about cows, plows, and sows. Some of the most popular projects in 4-H don't require a yard at all. They include robotics, music, arts and crafts, and sewing. Plus there is a "self determined" project which means your child can pretty much do anything in 4-H that they are passionate about. And most projects and clubs only meet once a month (so you still have time for all your other stuff)!
