Yep, I was in 4-H from 9-19 and very active both locally and nation wide. I was the county Federation president my senior year in high school and the local club president for many years. I went to Congress in Washington, D.C. when I was 17. Also showed at the state fair from 13-19 years old in different areas. Modeling, photography, food demonstration, and public speaking. 4-H molded much of what I am today. (that and a persistent nagging mother) I wanted my girls to get involved, but since we live in suburbia, it wasn't as cool as Girl Scouts, so they never showed any interest.
