Saturday morning, many of our local 4-H young people were busy at the Littlefield Memorial Park, making repairs on our Veterans’ final resting places.

The youngsters were repairing and also installing flag holders on each grave of a Veteran, so they will be able to be much more easily honored and recognized each Memorial Day Holiday. The 4-H members brought with

The 4-H members brought with them: tools, such as pliers, cordless drills with 1/2" auger bits and chargers, and a sack lunch for break time. They were all busy at their tasks as I drove around the Cemetery, with my camera, to capture these photos.

The 4-H members and adults at work were: Connie Burt, Charlie Burt, Lydia Burt, Lilli Burt, J.T. Burt, Abigail Burt, Jaden Burt, Ty Carr, Alana Carr, Tyson Carr, Piper Carr, Shaylee Harper, Brindle Harper, Valaree Harper, Kendra Callahan, and Emma Romero.

It should make Littlefield and area citizens very proud to know we have these dedicated young people in our Community, willing to take on this challenge, and we extend a hearty thank you to these 4-H young people for all their hard work.
