The summer looks to be a very busy time for the LaRue County Chamber of Commerce.
We are finalizing our plans for the annual meeting on June 23. Since last month’s column, I learned that State Rep. Michael Meredith plans to attend our meeting. We are very excited about his attendance and look forward to hearing him speak.

The 4-H Talent Show was held March 25 at the LaRue County High School auditorium. 4-H members showcased their talents in two age divisions: 9-13 year olds and 14-18 year olds.  
Winners were selected in each of the four categories: vocal, instrumental, physical skills and theatrical. The champions will advance to the Lincoln Trail Area Talent Show on May 14 in Nelson County.  

Congratulations to all the participants in the 4-H Poetry Contest. Participants are to be commended for their efforts. Fifty-eight poems were entered and the poems have been judged. The results are listed as follows.
The poems were divided into two age groups for judging. Junior division participants are ages 9-13 and the senior age division includes 14-18 year olds.
The top-eight junior poems and the top-four senior poems will advance to the District competition.
