As we approach the 21st year of the Children’s Christmas Benefit, we want to thank the many Rock County 4-H Clubs for their support through contributions of gifts, food and volunteer help during our event and after with sorting and packing gifts and food for children and families in need throughout Rock County. We couldn’t do this without volunteer help.
