Riding into spring, the Bridgeville Mustangs are ready for warm
weather and lots of 4-H activities. At the March meeting, we discussed
all the cool things that our members have done over the past month. We
held our 2nd annual Mustang Fun Fest. Our Jr. Leaders taught 8 projects
to enter in the fair. Fun was had by all!! The Mustangs had a great turn
out for the Favorite Foods Contest. All the dishes were delicious!
Congratulations to all that participated! The Palomino Ponies and the
Equinators both did an awesome job at the State Horse Bowl Competition.
The Palomino Ponies took 2nd in the state. Congrats to Paige, Donna,
Cheyenne, and Alexia!! Equinators were Tanner, Caleb, C.J., and Jenna.
Thanks to Mrs. Heather and Ms. Melissa for coaching us!!! Mr. Jordy led
us in a fun game using beach balls. It made everyone wish for summer!!
The Cloverbuds had a super time planting flowers and making a poster
that showed parts of a plant.
Our Horticulture and Poultry project groups have been practicing for
judging contests. Small Engines had their 1st meeting and learned parts
of a motor. Health project group made a poster on how to avoid dog
bites. Horse project group is set to work on entries for the Equine Art
