Write a commentOn Sunday, November 19th at 1:00 p.m., the Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center is celebrating America Recycles Day.
The 4-H educators will host a hands-on program reusing old wool sweaters to make mittens. This program is intended for intermediate sewers of all ages; individuals should be able to sew curves. Participants will be cutting their mittens using a provided pattern and sewing them together. The fee is $15 for 4-H to supply machine, notions, and sweater, or $10 if bringing personal machine, notions, and sweater. (Notions include needle, thread, pins, etc.) Please notify the office if you are planning to bring most supplies but would like to use some of 4-H's (scissors, for example).

Even if you aren't able to attend the programs, trails at the Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center are open from dawn to dusk, 365 days a year. There is no parking fee, and there is a map of the trails when you arrive.
