How Community 4-H Club Are Organized I
4-H Club work objectives are tbe
same everywhenbi Each state, how
ever, develops He owiv organization
end program to meet the needs of
its people. In Neath-Carolina all of
Club work is now, being conducted
through organised community 4-H
Clubs.
. The 4-H Club organization is a
part of the North Carolina Agricul
tural Extension Service with head
quarters at N. d State-College, Ral
eigh. It is conducted it) cooperation
| *tth N. C. State College. U. S. Dh
[ partment of Agriculture and all
Counties in North Carolina have
agents working with 4-H.
Extension Agents in -Duplin Coun
ty decided early in 1981 that club
work in the county would proceed
through organized community 4-H
Clubs, This change was discussed
With the Duplin County Board of
Commissioners, Superintendent of
Public Schools and each local sch
ool principal. Extension Agents ex
plained to 4-H dub members enrol
led in the school clubs about (tie
1 change during the March meetings.
Community Clube have been or
ganized in an orderly procedure
since the announcement was made
and now have reached a total of 16
communities.. Several other clubs
are in the organizational phase at
present. Communities desiring a
4-H Club should contact Extension
Agents Lois Britt and Marion G.
Griffin for assistance in organizing
a community 4-H Club.
The major responsibility of or
ganizing a community 4-H Club
rests in the hands of a local 4-H
sponsoring committee. Duplin Coun
ty Extension Agents provide train
ing literature and supplies to this
committee. The 4-H Sponsoring
Committee guides Club members in
suggesting possible adult 4-H lead
ers. With the local 4-H'ers, this com
mittee contacts persons suggested
as leaders and secures the consent
of at least one man and one woman
to serve as adult 4-H leaders. After
this has been completed the spon
soring committee arranges for an
organizational meeting of the lead
ers that were chosen and of the
boys and girls parents.
The three major responsibilities
of adult 4-H leaders are: to guide
the operation of the local commun
ity 4-H club, to serve as contact per
sons with Extension Agents and to
keep informed of club and county
activities.

THE HOUSE THAT GREW OUT OF A BOOK!
The book, of course, was a savings bankbook! On its pages was writ- IAJ
ten the "success story" of a family that wanted a home of their own. Each M
deposit was a chapter that carried the story a bit further along toward its 11 f
happy ending ... the down payment on the home of their dreams. Adding
INTEREST, all through the book, was this bank! And this, of course, made M J
the family's savings grow much faster to the total they required. Our inter- In
est rate on savings is a'liberal. . .

Greenwood 4-H
Is Enthusiastic
Well! the year is over and what
a year it's been. Even though our
club has only been moderately ac
tive we've made quite a good bit
of progress and thoroughly enjoyed
activities.
Our first important event was the
Health and Talent Pageant in April.
Greenwood was proud to have club
talent skit in which all of our mem
bers participated. In addition, we
had Stella' Wells and Hugh Rouse,
Dekalb Wells and Linda Carter, and
Ann Lee Hawes participating in the
Health Pag$nat. We were all happy
when Anna Lee Was named County
Health Qnden.
In June we enjoyed an afternoon I
at the Cliffs, where we swam and j
then MIT'IF'fricinc supper. A wild
life (protector ) took us on an in
terestingA-jfliided tour of the sur
rounding wooded area where he
pointed out-various kinds of vege
tation and forest creatures.
Demonstrations had long been
looked forward to. At last the day
arrived when our club sent three
well practiced participants to Hob
bton High. Stella Wells and Martha
Bradshaw won second district with
a team dairy foods demonstration.
Patricia Rouse won a blue ribbon
lor her entomology' demonstration.
Greenwood sent five members to
State 4-H Club Week;; Patricis Rou
se, Stella Wells, Martha Bradshaw,
Anna Lee Hawes, and Tony Wilson.
We all learned an invaluable a
mount and returned enthused about
our club work.
Later in Setembcr,. Tony, Wilson
went to New Barn where he shdwed
his Jersey Calif Eleventh Annual
Coastal Caroling Junior Show. Their
he won the first Senior Calf Class
and the Grand Champion of Jersey j
breed. He also woo the second place
fitten showmanship. Then he took
her to Wilmington to the Thirteenth
Annual Southeastern North Caro
lina Junior Dairy Cattle Show, i
First, he won purple ribbon merk
for looks. He won first senior caif j
class, second Junior Champion j
breed, and first place fitten show
manship. Last, he took his calf to
the North Carolina State Fair where
he was in red group.
Ann Lee Hawes exhibited her en- J
tomology collection at the State
Fair and was awarded a blue rib
bon.
November brought the Annaul
Achievement Day at which many of
the Greenwood members participat
ed. Together approximately thirty
blue ribbons were won by the
Greenweed members. Later in No
vember, the blue ribbon winners
went to Wilmington.' Everyone en
joyed themselves and learned many
?ew ideas about. 4-H- - r <
Along about this time we sudden
ly become slightly "ffcancially em
barrassed." To remedy this state,
our club embarked on a candy sel
ling project. Our earnings came to
fifty dollars which will' pay our
beneral expenses untM summer.
It has been fun with a good bit of
work included; but all in all, we
love 4-H.
