It is a program that is provided in many areas to provide young people (ages 10-21) with life skills, similiar in many ways to Home-Ec and Technology classes offered at schools. Leaders are volunteers who provide members with knowledge on many different topics (sewing, cooking, gardening, animal management, crop management, etc., etc., etc.,)
The club's motto is;
I pledge my Head to clearer thinking,
My Heart to greater loyalty,
My Hands to larger service,
And my Health to better living,
for my Club, my Community and my Country
4-H (Head, Heart, Health and Hands)
I remember saying that pledge at each meeting. Our area of Texas didn't have as active a 4-H program as more agricultural areas did, but we did sew and garden some. We had a neat group of girls. froggyintexas
