required Sandra to persuade a local homeowner to open his grounds and pool "to the 4-H’ers since Rappahannock County has no public swimming facilities. It also meant arranging transportation for some of the 4-H’ers.

In addition, she organized a 4-H Fair at which the youth exhibited the various handicrafts they had made over the summer. Craft classes were Sandra’s forte and showed up in the 4-H’ers exhibits of tie-dying, macrame, burlap ruler holders, book covers, and book ends, paper animals, spool knitting, felt flowers, knitting, crocheting and other items.

Due to her efforts, the 4-H club in Washington, Va. received instruction in first aid, taught by a retired nurse in the community. Another club had cooking lessons taught by their volunteer leader. Sandra also got involved in a program for mothers of Head Start children. Prior to the start of classes, she put together a lecture and demonstration on how to feed and clothe the children. It included a discussion of the importance of breakfast, tips on what to look for in good clothing construction and wearability and a demonstration of appropriate clothes for school wear. A total of 75 mothers attended. Sandra, who will graduate from Longwood College in June, feels the summer work experiences have been of great benefit to her. This was the third summer she has worked in the Rappahannock County Extension Office.
