The Tractor Supply Paper Clover Campaign is April 24th – May 5th and is a national in-store fundraiser that benefits state and local 4-H programming. Tractor Supply stores in communities across the country have long supported 4-H clubs. Paper Clovers are $1 and 70% of the funds raised at the Forsyth store benefit our county 4-H program. On Saturday, April 27th we will be at Tractor Supply in Forsyth promoting the Paper Clover Campaign. Any 4-H’er who comes by the 4-H booth and helps promote this campaign anytime between 9:00-12:00 will be entered into a drawing for a special prize to be announced that afternoon. We hope you guys will join us!
