Contest Deadline: January 25, 2008 This year, in honour of Alberta 4-H’s 90th Anniversary, 4-H staff, members, volunteers, Council and Foundation will be out and about to educate people on the benefits of being a part of the 4-H picture. Never being one to be left out of the excite- ment, Cleaver has decided to take this initiative to the next level by spreading the word about 4-H himself. For each of the three trips that Cleaver goes on, we will have a picture of him catching some rays or hiking around or min- gling with the locals. All you have to do is figure out where he is and you could win a collection of travel related items worth $100! We don’t need specifically precise locations (no street names necessary) but just enough so that we know that you know that Cleaver has been putting some serious effort telling the world about 4-H! Once you have the three locations figured out (one for each magazine published this year) fill out the ballot below with your answers and fax it (780.422.7755) or mail it to us at: 4-H Branch 7000 113 Street NW, Room 200 Edmonton, Alberta T6H 5T6 Please send completed submission post marked by January 25, 2008.
