YMCA Basket Ball Kids show their stuff!
Many Irion County students choose to hone their basketball skills on the court by playing YBall.  (click a picture to enlarge)

In 4-H you can do all sorts of things.  Only one of these is showing animals.   You can show pigs, goats, rabbits, cattle, and angora goats. You can also do other things in 4-H besides showing. You can do cooking, sewing, photography, method demonstration, consumer decision making, wool and mohair judging, record book, livestock judging, and leadership lab. 4-H is really fun and there is something to do for everyone.

In Little League you can do so many things like, hit grand slams, triples, doubles, and singles. If you dive to catch a ball or hit a home run you can become the player of a game and win a medal. If you win the championship you win a big trophy. Little League is a lot of fun!!


In Cub Scouts we have lots of fun while we learn. We learn about being a gentleman, an outdoorsman, a statesman, a citizen and a good family member. Scouts go on camping trips both day long and overnight. Come join us and learn while you have fun!
