Fair entries are free but winning entries are eligible for significant prize money this year for Best of Class and Best of Show. Members can choose to concentrate on one craft or do all three quickly. Tables should be set up and manned by 6:15pm so....get to the meeting on time to create your art!

If you would like to help with any of these stations, please contact oaktown4h@gmail.com and get to the meeting just a bit before 6:15pm.

Projects have started and we've gotten a couple of project reports from our club members!

Project: Painted Rocks
“We enjoyed painting rocks in the first painted rock project meeting. We painted the 4-H website on some painted rocks that we made and then we later got to put them in Montclair park. So now other people would see them and learn about 4-H. Everybody did very different painted rocks. we enjoyed making the rocks and hiding them.”
- Wyatt

Project: Sewing
I've been part of the Sewing Project for three years with Oak Town 4-H. I think it's super fun because you can make stuff that is really cool and fun. For example a few years ago I made a whale stuffy and a reusable sandwich bag that I still have.

This year we meet at my parent's house so I don't have to move too far from the couch. Our first meeting we made pillow cases. I made the pillow case too long, but it's still fun to make. Next week we will meet for the second time and make trick or treat bags for Halloween.​

Our sewing project is always fun. We make useful things that we can use in our daily lives that are cool and fun. It is a great way to make new friends with common interests.

Trunk or Treat Needs YOUR Help!
Our October Club Meeting begins with a festive Trunk or Treat with families volunteering to decorate their trunks or tailgates with fall holiday-themed decor and a simple game with candy or trinket prizes. This means we need families to sign up as one of our Trunk or Treat vehicle "booths". This can be as simple or fancy as you wish and vehicles should be in the upper dimond rec parking lot by 5:45 to set up so kids can start visiting at 6pm. The kids will start parading down into the Center at 6:30 soit is a very short-lived commitment. We really appreciate your help!

FIRST EVER Oak Town 4-H Day of the Dead Celebration
The Officer Team wants to try something new this fall- a Day of the Dead Celebration where you can honor and celebrate the life of a loved-one no longer alive. The loved one can be a family member, a pet or just someone that was dear to you. Bring a photograph, trinket or some other small object that makes you think of them. At the club meeting you will be able to share your love and appreciation for this loved one and how the object you share brings them to mind. 

When you arrive at the meeting, the Trunk or Treat will be going on in the upper parking lot and then you will line up for a costumed parade down into the Dimond Recreation Center. 
  • Be sure at that point that you have the item you want to share with you. 
  • As you enter the Center's meeting room, there will be a smaller table with a table covering on it. Just place your item on that table until the Costume Contest is complete. 
  • At that point we will shift to sharing items about lost loved ones to celebrate their lives and you will pick up your item from the table and share who your loved one was and why the item is special to you in remembering them.
Skate Night is coming!! Do you like to skate? Do you want to get together with your county members and have some fun? Skate over to Golden Skate on October 27th, and participate in our annual skate night!

  • Parent Meeting, Q&A
NEW for Oak Town 4-H Club in 2025-2026 
The Oak Town 4-H Officer Team met and has a great year planned for you. They have come up with a few new ideas we will be bringing on board this year. Some of these include:
  • Family Files: a place to pick up current information and to keep documents used throughout the year. All families registered by 9/7 will have a file ready for the September Club Meeting and more will be added as registrations come in. 
  • Super Member Form: We want to reward members that are active and participate in our club. The new Super Member Form gives members the opportunity to win prizes for doing stuff. The forms will be available each month and kids can get the items stamped off as they do them and those completing the form will get a prize at the end of the 4-H year.
  • Meeting Timeline: The Officer Team are switching the timeline of the meetings up a bit this year. The first 15-20 minutes of the meeting will be devoted to a group activity that is more free-form, followed by snacks and the business portion of the meeting will start after that. The Upcoming Events and announcements will be towards the beginning of the business meeting so those with very young children can find out what's coming up and then leave if this fits their young children's schedules.
The Officer Team will evaluate these changes periodically through the 4-H year and make adjustments if they find it necessary.
