EDITORIAL<br />
I am going to date myself for just one moment but as I write this, it is<br />
10 degrees and raining outside and it reminded me of a song from my<br />
youth titled Cruel Summer by Bananarama. It somehow seemed like a<br />
fitting description for Summer <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong> as well.<br />
However, despite the lack of warmth and sunshine for many, we do<br />
hope you managed to enjoy some of what 4-H has to offer. Whether<br />
it was showcasing your livestock project, going places on a 4-H<br />
exchange or laughing the days away at a summer camp there was<br />
certainly a flurry of 4-H activities to be had.<br />
As always, summer, no matter the weather, was over in what seemed<br />
like a blink of an eye. So here we are with another wonderful 4-H<br />
year upon us already. I think a lot of us can relate to that excited<br />
feeling of attending the first club meeting – a chance to reconnect<br />
with old friends and meeting new members and parents for the<br />
first time. And for those new members and parents 4-H can seem<br />
a bit overwhelming in the beginning so let us all remember to be<br />
welcoming and understanding.<br />
In this edition of the 4-H <strong>Alberta</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> you will find stories of<br />
adventure, travel, fantastic projects, amazing members and a whole<br />
lot more. Articles that will reinforce how integral of a role 4-H plays in<br />
the lives of today’s youth. Thank you again for all of your submissions.<br />
So take a few moments and just revel in the non-stop happenings of<br />
this awesome organization. Because it is awesome, and it is non-stop.<br />
Lastly, one never knows where the next adventure will take us but<br />
it has been a privilege to put together another edition of the 4-H<br />
<strong>Alberta</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong>. I hope you still enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy<br />
putting it together.<br />
Until next time…<br />
