4-H members thank Gogebic County commissioners for travel support to Michigan State awards
Summary
Ashley Dennis, 4-H program coordinator, reported that three Gogebic County 4-H members won Michigan State Awards and thanked the board for a monetary donation that helped them attend a three-day camp at Michigan State University where they took classes including sewing, weaving, yoga and survival.
Ashley Dennis, the county 4-H program coordinator, updated the Gogebic County Board of Commissioners on local 4-H activities during the July 8 public-comment period and introduced three county 4-H members who had received Michigan State Awards. The members thanked the board for a monetary donation that helped cover travel costs to a three-day Michigan State University camp where they participated in classes such as sewing, weaving, yoga and survival.
Why it matters: The board's financial support helped youth participants access statewide educational opportunities and public recognition; local officials acknowledged the county’s role in supporting youth programs.
Dennis provided the update during the meeting's public-comment segment. Board members did not express opposition; Commissioner Yon acknowledged courthouse staff after reporting a basement water break earlier in the meeting.
The public-comment recognition concluded without formal action. The board adjourned at 5:11 p.m.
