Passover Seder 

is April 17

Bits-n-Boots, the newly chartered Brunswick County 4-H Horse Club, hosted its first club fun day recently. In addition to the nearly 20 club members and four volunteer club leaders, four breeds of horses were exhibited, including the American Paint Horse, Appaloosa, Shetland pony and an Arabian.

Announcement is made of the forthcoming marriage of Tammy Koonce Hanson and Ricky Maynard Jr., both of Boiling Spring Lakes. The bride is the daughter of Aline Corbett Harrell of Boiling Spring Lakes and Edward ‘Pete’ Koonce of Ramseaur. She is employed by the Brunswick County Health Department. The prospective groom is the son of Patty Hinkle Maynard of Castle Hayne and Ricky Maynard Sr. and Betty Maynard of Houston, Texas. He is employed by Mundy Maintenance. A May 28 wedding is planned at Riverside Community Center in Castle Hayne.

Each year, youth from around the state travel to 4-H camps with their county 4-H agent. This year will be no exception, as Brunswick County 4-H’ers will be attending Betsy-Jeff Penn 4-H Center Aug. 7-12.
