Now that you have actually concluded the sale of your 4-H market animal(s), it is vitally important to prepare a thank you note to those individuals or businesses that supported you through this year’s 4-H experience. But what should I include? The following list may help provide some ideas:

- Sincerely thank buyer for purchase of your animal
- You might share specific plans you have for use of the sale proceeds

• Purchase of next year's project animal
• Saving for education after high school
• Enrolling in and exploring other 4-H project offerings

- Share one or two interesting things you learned about this year
- Invite them to participate in future Stock Sales

• Even if you are graduating, other members could benefit from their support
