The Northwest Scott 4-H Club met for its regular monthly meeting on December 11, 2017, at the First Southern Baptist Church fellowship hall.

President Kaitlyn Hanks called the meeting to order with eight members present. The roll-call question was “What is your Christmas wish?” The secretary read the minutes from the last meeting, and the treasurer gave a report. Kaitlyn Hanks gave a project talk about performing arts and told us about her membership in the National Thespian Honor Society.

Abbie Collins did a demonstration about how to make Christmas bows. Members enjoyed both talks, but awarded the traveling trophy to Abbie Collins.

A motion was made and seconded for the meeting to adjourn. Presents were wrapped that had been purchased for eight children through the Adopt-A-Child program at the Beacon. After wrapping Christmas gifts,  special holiday snacks were shared that the members brought.

 Club Leader Rachel Wagner reminded members that the club  will lead the flag salute on Dec. 15 at the Wreaths Across America ceremony at Fort Scott National Cemetery.
