ARCHERS NEEDED

The County Extension Office will be hosting the first ever Cherokee County AgriLife Extension Street Fair on June 8th in front of our office. I am asking for volunteers from the Cherokee County 4-H Archery Team to volunteer to be on hand from 11AM to 6 PM to perform exhibition shooting for the public during those times. Please contact the 4-H Office for more information or to submit your name as a volunteer.
