Shelby County 4-H'ers Bring Christmas Cheer to Historic Courthouse

December 6, 2016 - Shelby County 4-H'ers assisted with bringing Christmas cheer to the Historic Shelby County Courthouse on Tuesday, November 29, 2016 during their monthly meeting. Jheri-Lynn McSwain, County Extension Agent, gave a tour of the courthouse sharing with the kids a few details about the courthouse. McSwain showed the group a photo of a family member of her husband who helped with construction of the courthouse and then took them to the upstairs courtroom.

Following the history lesson, the fun began and everyone broke off into groups with each group being assigned duties from hanging the wreaths and decorating fireplace mantels to hanging ornaments on the large tree and small trees.

After the Christmas spirit was spread throughout, everyone enjoyed pizza at Pizzeria.
