They experienced living
"Madison County Style" and
had an exciting week of fun,
learning, and trying new
things.
As the week came to a close,
members from both states
made promises to write often
and said goodby for a year.
That year was a busy year
with fund-raising activities for
both clubs looking forward to
meeting once again; this time
in Walworth Co., Wisconsin.
Such fund-raising attempts as
car washes, bake sales, roller
skating parties, rummage
