The Chickasaw County 4-H Clubs are heading up a community service project called “Fall Fun & Games Day” which will be held on October 23, 2009 at the Chickasaw County Coliseum in Houston, MS. This day is held for “special needs” students attending the Houston School District and Chickasaw County School in Houlka. This is a free day of fun games, horse rides, educational activities, lunch, and other activities for these children and teachers to enjoy.

This is the tenth year for this special day to be held for the students. We had over 150 students, teachers, and volunteers attend the fun day last year. We are anticipating at least that many to attend the day this year. The “Fall Fun & Games Day” is totally sponsored by donations from civic organizations, area businesses, and volunteers. We would appreciate any items or money that you could give to make this day a success.

If you have any questions about the “Fun Day” please contact Chickasaw County 4-H Associate, Angie Abrams at 662-456-4269 or Jo Cross at 662-568-2431. You may also mail donations to: Chickasaw County 4-H Fun Day, Angie Abrams, 415 Lee Horn Drive Suite 4, Houston, MS 38851.
