4-H Clover Bowl

The Clover Bowl for 4-H is their version of a Knowledge Bowl. Each class picked teams of 4 people and had competitions in their own classroom to determine a winning team for each class. Both Christian & Rebecca won in their own classroom and competed in the school Clover Bowl. Rebecca's team from Mrs. Henderson's class was eliminated, but Christian's team won out of all the other 5th grade classes which means they get to compete in the County 4-H Clover Bowl.

That happened on Thursday night. I think that there are over 98 pages of 4H questions you can study. We didn't receive all of those, but Christian worked pretty hard on the ones that he had.

Our team got out in the first round. I think they were a little disappointed, but the team they lost to won the whole thing. Somehow, that always makes me feel better. This team was awesome. They would ring the buzzer before the question was hardly asked. We did hear that they actually start studying for the Clover Bowl right after Christmas break, so if that's true, they are hard core.

But our kids had fun and learned a lot and it was a fun experience.

It was very dark in there so these pictures didn't turn out great but you can see their team up there
