Head, Heart, Hands and Health.
My head to clearer thinking,
my heart to greater loyalty,
my hands to larger service,

4-H Members
They have fun with friends at meetings, social activities, tours, camps, and fairs. They learn to do interesting things, such as taking care of growing things like animals and plants, redecorating their rooms, fixing their bikes, taking pictures, practicing cooking and much more. Some help others with 4-H educational programs.
Call the county Extension office or a local 4-H leader if you know one. Find out if there is room in a club near you. If not, start a new club with interested young people and an adult or two to help. Check with the Extension office to find out what projects and activities are available.
