Club News:

The 4-H Sewing Stars of Ascension School have been working selflessly on “Snuggles” for animals in shelters.  The 4H Sewing Stars are sewing up security blankets for cats and dogs living in hard, cold cages.  They are combining the efforts of recycling, donating, and sewing.  They make the Snuggles out of left over draperies, old sweaters, and donated fabrics.  The animals won’t mind if the sweater was from last season, just as long as it keeps them warm and comfortable in their cages.  At 4:00PM on Friday, May 30th, the 4H Sewing Stars will be taking a field trip to the Kentucky Humane Society and making their second donation of Snuggles.  The Sewing Stars have plans to ship donations to the Bullitt County Animal Rescue, as well as shelters overseas. These shelters and  many more are members of the Snuggles Project and can be found online at www.snugglesproject.org.  4-H Ambassador and Snuggles Project leader, Shelby Comstock, is making plans to have a Sew-A-Thon at Ballard High School this fall to get high school students involved in the project.  If you are interested in helping by donating any fabric or would like more information, you can contact Shelby Comstock through the 4-H Office at (502) 569-2344.
