4-H Members Attend
Presidential Inauguration
Four Saluda County 4-H members and their chaperone attended the Inauguration Ceremony of Donald Trump during the 4-H Citizenship-Washington Focus Week. Attending were T. J. Price, Grey Riley, Mackenzie Riley, and Lindsey Scott. They were joined by 4 additional 4-H members from South Carolina and their chaperones, Cynthia Price and Allie Winter.
During this week long event held at the National 4-H Center, they participated in several workshops along with 300 other 4-H members from across the country. Their Washington tours included the Vietnam Memorial, World War 2 Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial and much more.
Positioned only 150 yards from the Capital, they viewed the swearing in of our new President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.
This trip was funded by Mid-Carolina Electric Cooperative Thrivent Financial, Saluda County Chamber of Commence, Asphalt Paving & Maintenance Company, Inc. and the State 4-H Fund.
