pocketed shirts.

she liked the tie dye shirt because last year the council did a more professional

pocketed shirt and she thinks that the shirt should be more bright and fun like the

about the font.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Cameron Stribling (Fayette County, District 4).

She said the cursive would be hard to read on the pocket.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Sydney Miller (Clark County, District 4). She

agreed that it would be harder to read and maybe we should change the font to

bold as well.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Zach Akers (Floyd County, District 1). He asked if

there was any way to see the changed shirt.

- Mr. Vice President said no and called for a vote on the motion of changing the

- Mr. Vice President said yes it does require a motion.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Camila Falcon (Grayson County, District 5). She

- Mr. Vice President said she was in order.


asked Camila if there was going to be a clover on both sides?

the back.


She 2nd the motion.


She said she liked the empower on the front.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Liam Burton (Lyon County, District 7). He said he

thought the hashtag should be on both the front and the back.


restated the contents of the motion. And then asked if all of the state will fit in the

pocket with the hashtag and clover and still be legible.


said she thinks it would not be hard to read.


asked about the outline again and then said she liked how it was originally.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Jenna Meredith (Hardin County, District 5). She

said on the other tie dye shirt if we could put the Clover as well with 4-H State

Teen Council.

- Mr. Vice President said Jenna was out of order due to her not discussing the

motion at hand.


called to a point of parliamentary procedure. He asked what was the motion we

were discussing.

the clover with #empowerky4h to the pocket of the shirt and the KY 4-H State

- Mr. Vice President recognized Luke Jacobs (Butler County, District 6). He told

the council about how last year was his first year at Teen Conference and how

he felt the tie dye would be more recognizable.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Zach Akers (Floyd County, District 1). He said he

agreed with Luke Jacobs about the tie dye being more noticeable to Teen

Conference delegates so that they could recognize the council because this is

the councils moment to show off.


last year the council had comfort colors shirts and they were really hot. The tie

dye shirt would be thinner and better for heat purposes.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Carla Sturgill (Letcher County, District 2). She said

she thought the tie dye shirts were a cool and different idea, but she asked if we

could make the decal more professional by switching the design from the other

shirt to the tie dye.


said that since there was no pocket on the tie dye shirt that it may be odd to have

a decal of that size there.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Carla Sturgill (Letcher County, District 2). She said

what if we kept the design on the front of the tie dye shirt and added the back

from the other shirt to the tie dye shirt.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Patrick Allen (Advisor). He said how do you go

about discussing rhetorical questions.

- Mr. Vice President said there would be 2 more points before the vote.


said that the current point that keeps being repeated was that the tie dye shirts

were more visible. Every 4-H person has a lot of tie dye shirts.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Skyler Turner (Perry, County, District 2). She said

she disagrees with Landry. She does not have a lot of tie dye.

- Mr. Vice President called for a vote on the two shirt options. The tie dye shirt

won.

● Elections- Sydney Miller (Clark County, District 4) presented. All members were

present. They reviewed and revised the campaign rules.

● Evaluations- Laura Lockard (Pulaski County, District 5) presented. All members

were present. They met with the Public Relations committee and discussed the

leadership workshop for Teen Summit.

● Finance- Laura Flannery (Montgomery County, District 1) presented. All

members were present. They decided if you choose not to fundraise or sell the

socks then you must give a $50 donation. For those who do not meet the goal of

18 pairs of socks, then you will be expected to donate $4 for every pair of socks

they do not sell. For payment of socks, those who need socks before Christmas

need to mail the money to the state 4-H office by December 1st. After that date

the money should be turned in at the February meeting and the socks will be

given then. They also asked anyone that is attending Summit Session 2 or 3 that

would be interested in being in charge of clover corner to let anyone on the

finance committee know. In this position you will be responsible for making sure

clover corner is attended to and each member is working clover at the correct

time. In addition, you will be responsible for counting the money each night.


asked what exactly clover corner has and does.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Laura Flannery (Montgomery County, District 1).

She said that at Clover Corner kids can buy candy, bracelets, 4-H merchandise,

etc.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Luke Carter (Hart County, District 6). He asked if a

person sold 16 pairs of socks if the person still has to pay $4 for every pair not

sold?

- Mr. Vice President recognized Brandon Darby (Treasurer). He said if you multiply

18 by 4 it is still more than the $50 initiative to sell the sock.


said that, that would be a loophole and that should be fixed.


we should change it to $4 is owed for every pair of socks not sold.

- Mr. Vice President said an example would be if you sold 17 socks then it would

be required to pay $4.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Sydney Miller (Clark County, District 4). She said

she was confused. At what point do you switch from the $50 to the $4 per sock.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Deborah Myers (President). She said from what

she was understanding you pay $50 if you do not do the fundraiser and then if

you only sell a portion you pay $4 for every pair not sold.


said 18 multiplied by 4 equals 72. How is it fair for the people that sell the socks

and then the people that don’t only pay 50?

- Mr. Vice President recognized Brandon Darby (Treasurer). He asked for the

question to be restated.

- Mr. Vice President said that the socks were being sold for $6 so the profit is only

$2 per par and so that makes a total of $36 or not selling and paying $50.


asked if we should raise the amount of donation for not selling socks.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Brandon Darby (Treasurer). He clarified and said

that the donation needs to be increased in order to be more fair.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Walter Steely (Webster County, District 6). He

stated that the council was still making a profit either way.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Dylan Gentry (Program Assistant). He said if you

don’t participate you have to pay $50. If a person was to sell one then what

would happen? Sell one pair of socks and pay $50.

- Mr. Vice President said there is no in between it is an ‘or’ option.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Patrick Allen (Advisor). He said the more

discussion that the council was having the more confusing it is getting.


moved to raise the required donation to equal the amount of paying.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Luke Jacobs (Butler County, District 6). He 2nd

the motion.


said he strongly encouraged to fail this motion. Because he believes that the 50

amount is good due to a profit still being made unlike the socks where you lose

over half of it. The 50 you get all of it.


felt like it was the council’s duty to do this and he agreed with the donation being

raised.


asked if everyone that sold an amount of socks had to pay $4 per sock not sold.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Brandon Darby (Treasurer). He said yes.


asked if we were just compensating for the funds we lost for buying the socks.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Rachel Noble (Advisor). She said if we do this we

could potentially lose $1,000 if the amount is not raised. If this happens we will

be unable to pay for the STC shirts, night out at the June meeting, etc.


we pay $4 and $6 they are being sold for. The total being $72.

- Mr. Vice President said the point of Rachel’s point is if we do 72 then we are just

breaking even.


said she believed that the donation being higher would be better because she

believes the money we put into the program is going to such a good cause.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Patrick Allen (Advisor). He said the reason we do

this is to make a profit. The penalty for not participating needs to be made.

- Mr. Vice President said he would take to more comments.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Luke Carter (Hart County, District 6). He said if we

only require 50 then we are losing $22.


said moved to amend the motion for the penalty being raised to $72. She moved

to raise the penalty for not selling socks to be $108.


2nd the motion.


said he moves to refer this to the advisor board.

- Mr. Vice President said that was not an option.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Rachel Noble (Advisor). She said it was not up to

the advisors it was up to the council.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Deborah Myers (President). She said not the

advisors, but possibly the finance committee.

- Mr. Vice President said he will be taking 2 more points.


thinks we should refer this discussion to the finance committee.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Caryn McCreary (Advisor). She said no the

council will be deciding.

- Mr. Vice President said we are back to Molly’s motion.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Luke Jacobs (Butler County, District 6). He said

that the motion would not fix the problem. He believes you should pay $6 for

every pair of socks not sold.


She said she agreed with Luke.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Lexie Brooks (Todd County, District 7). She called

for a point of order. She said we could not discuss that topic at this time.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Luke Jacobs (Butler County, District 6). He moved

to amend the amended motion and change the penalty to $72 for not

participating and $6 per sock not sold.


2nd the motion.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Liam Burton (Lyon County, District 7). He said he

agreed with Luke and he believes we can work and achieve this goal of selling

socks and it is more fair. He believes we should move on.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Walter Steely (Webster County, District 6). He

said he plans on selling socks so it would not disturb him but the amount just

keeps increasing.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Patrick Allen (Advisor). He said we forgot Molly’s

amendment.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Mattea Wyatt (Secretary). She explained that

when Luke made a new motion he amended Molly’s.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Liz Walker (Spencer County, District 3). She said

she thinks the 108 is the better option and she moved to amend the amendment.


called for a point of order. He explained there can only be 2 amendments at

time.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Dr. Chuck Stamper. He called for a vote and to

end discussion.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Zach Akers (Floyd County, District 1). He 2nd.

- Mr. Vice President called for a vote on ending discussion and it passed.

- Mr. Vice President called for a vote on Luke Jacobs motion. It did not pass.

- Mr. Vice President recognized Rachel Noble (Advisor). She said technically

because Molly made two motions it is her motion the council should be voting on.

- Mr. Vice President called for a vote on Molly’s motion (penalty being $108 and if

a person does participate in sock sales but does meet the goal then each sock

not sold is $6). The vote passed.
