We are the Pojoaque Valley 4-H club in Santa Fe County, New Mexico.
**2009 Gold Seal Club**
We welcome newcomers to join our club!
Our members are working on a wide variety of projects.
These include arts and crafts, archery, horticulture, public speaking, baking, sewing, model rocketry,and raising and showing
animals. The animals that members are showing include horses, dogs, pigs, chickens, rabbits, goats, and jackalopes (OK,
so no one has seen a jackalope, but we are in the Land of Enchantment).
Throughout the year, we participate
in and organize a number events with the biggest event being the Santa Fe County Fair in July. Our members enter many
of the contests in the fair.
