Tractor Repair

Tractor Repair

Some of the 4-H’ers helped put a new gas tank on a 1948 Ford 8N tractor. It was the first mechanics class in the new Technology Center.

The gas tank, on a Ford 8N, is built into the hood of the tractor. This made for a challenging project, but it was a great experience for the 4-H’ers.

This project gave the 4-H’ers a taste of what needs to be done on a farm and/or ranch. It also opened their eyes to a possible career path.

Help Us Provide Welcome Kits!

When new children arrive at the home, often they come with very little in the way of basic items that they need to settle in to our community and feel welcome.

We have created a Welcome Kit that each child is given upon arrival that consists of a duffle bag filled with those basic items they need to get off to a good start.
