We would like to thank you for participating in our 4-H Clover Dash fundraiser. Congratulations to all participants who crossed the finish line running or walking! A special shout out to our top runners this year! Great job everyone! 

Additionally, thank you for your many purchases on the silent auction, making it one of our best years yet. The funds raised from this event go to support programming and scholarships for the roughly 500 youth members of Anoka County 4-H.
