      Other formatting ideas if you get stuck…<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Start by introducing yourself! Who are you? How long have you been in 4-H? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Then consider a paragraph on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Past:<\/strong> What are some things you’ve done this year? Is there anything you’re particularly proud of? Have you done 4-H before? What about other clubs or activities? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Future:<\/strong> What are you excited about this holiday season? Do you have any fun traditions you’re going to be doing with your family? What about for next year? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Questions<\/strong>: Do you have any thoughtful questions for your recipient? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Let the tone of your letter guide you- we simply want to let Lincoln County residents know we are thinking of them during this season! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you hand-write your letters, make sure they are neat and easy to read! Feel free to make your letters your own with colored paper, pens, markers, or by including drawings or other fun things. Be creative! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      DO NOT INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Anything that can identify you<\/strong> specifically, including:
      last name, birth date, address, phone number, mom\/dad\/aunt\/grandma\/relatives last name, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Knowing your first name and that you’re a 4-H’er is plenty! <\/strong><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
