The j 4-H Program offers satisfying i experiences also for you in helping other boys and girls,' munity 4-H leaders, sponsors and friends of 4-H. The purpose of the 4-H Club: Program is to provide ideas and training in skills, leader ship and citizenship. Four-H members "Learn to do by do ing." to develop their minds (Head?H); to do useful work (Hands?H>;. to provide loyal service to their fellowman and, to God (Heart?H); and to! form habits that will develop j healthy bodies and healthy minds (Health?H). Membership in the 4-H Club; is voluntary. Any boy or girl be tween the ages of 10 and 211 may belong. Four-H Clubs arc organized on a community basis and usually meet monthly. The club members elect their own officers and conduct their own meetings and activi ties. Each 4-H member selects a project that fits the home situation and his or her needs and interests. Community 4-H Leaders guide the club. Extension Agri cultural and Home Economics Agents help the leaders and assist the 4-H members. They provide 4-H record books and manuals obtained from the North Carolina State Agricul tural Extension Service. Four-H Club Work helps members to develop citizenship ! and leadership through club and community activities; to ' make new friends and contacts |' with other boy? and girt* ant adult through group patMclpa tion; to ahara learning expert ences with others; to take pride in ownership of worth while projects and in work manship; to learn to present demonstrations; to learn to ae | cept responsibility and follow I through with projects under taken; to participate in 4-H Camp activities; to receive rec ognition such as medals, cash awards, bonds, and educational trips for work accomplished. You as a parent have a difi nite responsibility in helping your 4-H boy or girl succeed. It has been found that behind each successful 4-H boy and girl stands a 4-H parent who encouraged, guided and sup ported them. His or her at titude will depend on your in terest and enthusiasm in 4-H activities. The late Dr. C. B. Smith, a pioneer 4-H leader, once said, "Extension Agents and local leaders may kindle the flame in youth to take up 4-H Club Work, but it takes the good will and help of parents to keep the fire burning." . I Encourage your boy or girl to be an active member of the t-H Club and participate in all activities.
