4 FSQA Training If you plan on showing swine at the Marion County Fair; or Beef, Sheep, Swine, Dairy,,, or Goat at the State Fair, you need to be FSQA certified What is FSQA? The Iowa 4-H Food Safety and Quality Assurance (FSQA) program focuses on seven Good Production Practices that help ensure the safety of the food you produce. When 4-H ers meet the 4-H FSQA certification, they also meet the Beef Quality Assurance and Pork Quality Assurance certification Who needs FSQA? All you exhibiting SWINE at the Marion County Fair. All youth exhibiting BEEF, SHEEP, SWINE, DAIRY, POULTRY, RABBIT OR GOAT at the Iowa State Fair. How do I certify for FSQA? 4-H ers must attend a certification program every year to be FSQA certified. 4-H ers age 19 on January 1 will need to certify through the adult program. When and Where do complete the requirements for FSQA? Training will be offered for Marion County 4-H ers on Monday, March 27, 2017 at the Marion County Extension Office. There will only be two start times. The first start time is at 5:00. The second group will not start until 6:00. No Testing will be offered this year. State requirements will be changing for next year so there will be no test out option in the future. If you have questions or comments, please call the Marion County Extension Office (641) Basketball Tournament The H Basketball Tournament will be held on March 24th & 25th at the Melcher-Dallas High School. The rules, rosters, and information will be sent out to leaders. Uniform Contest This year at the basketball tournament, we will be giving a prize to the team with the best uniforms! Be creative. Have fun. Come up with a style and design all your own, but please remember that we are playing 4H Basketball. Everything must be appropriate and reflect good sportsmanship. 4

9 Loving Hope Charity Hello My name is Maddie Eldredge and I am a 5th grader at Norths\Star and I decided to start a charity called Loving Hope. I got the idea from watching a video about a girl and she made a charity called Good night, Sleep tight. Loving hope is by a kid for a kid. All the donations go 100% to Helping Hands and/or Backpack Buddies. I gave a presentation for my club, the Hex-a-Poppins, and now I am also asking for your help. The things that can be donated are: Shampoo Conditioner Deodorant Wash Cloth Toothbrushes Toothpaste Hair brushes/combs Hair De-Tangler Small Towels Bars of Soap Band-aids Blankets (throw) There is a box in the office where you can put your donations and there will be little list of the things you can donate. I will be collecting the donations for the next two months and will be distributed by the end of May. Thank you -Maddie E. 4-H Movie Night Friday, April 28th 6-8 p.m. Marion County Extension Office Join County Council for an evening watching a movie, hanging out with friends, and eating popcorn and snacks.
