WASHINGTON — A whopping 130 couples enjoyed in the special Me & My VIP Sweetheart Dance held Saturday night, Feb. 17, hosted by the 4-H County Council at the KC Hall in Washington.

The event was open to the public for kindergarten-fourth youth and a special adult VIP (Very Important Person) in their life. Participants were dressed up with their caring adults as fathers, mothers, grandparents, neighbors, older siblings and more filled the KC Hall with a sweet kind of hustle and bustle.

The committee was honored to have record-breaking attendance with a new venue to accommodate more couples. Each couple posed at the photo booth and was able to take home a framed keepsake photo. This night of special memories included dancing, refreshments, corsages, and fun.

The high school leadership team, 4-H County Council, hosted this event. They were responsible for set up and tear down but the fun part was for those volunteering throughout the evening. Their evening included running the photo booth with nonstop instant printing, snack refills, game playing, and dancing. Volunteers that evening included Blake Peck, Gwen Piette, Kelsi Cerny, Maya Murphy, Izzi Chalupa, Halle Cuddeback, and Claire Stalder. (Photo submitted)

Proceeds from the evening will be used in other 4-H-hosted events in the coming year.

Many pictures from the Me & My VIP Sweetheart Dance are posted on Facebook at “Washington County 4-H — Iowa.” For more information, on events and special programs for kindergarten-12th grade youth, contact the Washington County Extension Office at 319-653-4811.
