HOULTON, Maine — The Tractor Supply Company store in Houlton was recently recognized with an award for its outstanding performance during this year’s 4-H/TSC Paper Clover Campaign. The store received the Class Champion Award for achieving at least a 20 percent transaction percentage and raising a minimum of $300 for Paper Clover donations.
The 4-H/TSC Paper Clover Campaign is a nationwide, in-store fundraiser that benefits 4-H programming in the communities where a TSC store is located. The spring 2014 campaign was a very successful promotion, raising over $787,000 that will support 4-H at the local, state, and national levels. The funds raised have provided direct support for local camps, after-school programs and other activities, and have granted scholarships to these events so youth can explore their interests in everything from animal science to robotics.
For more information on the 4-H program, contact your local University of Maine Cooperative Extension office. In Aroostook County, contact the Houlton UMaine Extension office at 532-6548 or online umaine.edu/aroostook/houlton.
