Food, fun, and friendship on field trip

The Douglas County 4-H Foundation strikes again! Once more, they funded a field trip to the Johnson and Wales Culinary Institute for a van-ful of 4-H'ers on Monday, April 20. Kids toured classrooms to see culinary students at work, took a look around the campus, and then were treated to a 5-course gourmet meal prepared by student chefs and served in a 5-star restaurant setting. While the standard 5 courses were served - appetizer, salad, soup, entree, dessert - several choices were available, and all got to try something different.

Everybody said they had a good time and would recommend the field trip to other 4-H'ers next year. Watch the newsletter for an announcement around February or so.

Thanks to Stacey Collins for dropping everything and volunteering to be our van driver!
