(Continued) by* Benita Ball Banks Creek We arrived at Leadership on Monday afternoon. August 5. From that moment until the tme we came home our days were filled with fun and excite- ment On Monday night we began to know the other delegates as we enjoyed watermelon and a get acquainted party. From that time on we were "n« big fam ly of teenage 4-H Club members learning to be better junior lead ers back in our home counties. I especially enjoyed the out etand ng speakers at morning Assembly. We had a forum on Understanding State Govern ment by two of our N. C. re presentatives. I enjoyed the class on Nature’* World and was able to learn a new Craft which was Vegetable Block Printing. This was my second trip to Lcade-shp Conference and even though I cannot go another year, I sure wish there was some pos sible way to do so. Highlights Os 4-H-1968 Highlights of 4-H - 1968 By: Pat Guyer. Assistant Agricultural Ext Agent The summer vacation months of 1968 was an exc ting, reward ing, and busy time for the 4-H Club members of Yancey Coun ty. I b lieve those who took an active part in 4-H programs on the Dis.rict and State level would be willing to test fy as to the value they received in per sonal development. 4-H more than any other youth organiza tion teaches young people “to learn by doing” and to enhance personal grow.h and values through the various events in which they participate. To dale Yancey Coun‘y has six organized 4-H Clubs. These youngsters are to be commend ed for their concern and enthus iasm. Those clubs wh ch are or ganized are a direct result of their interest and pa ent re sponse. Active clubs have been estab lished in the Arbuckle , Brush Creek, Double Island, Lower Jacks Creek, Pensacola and Ramseytown commun ties. Much of the credit goes to their lead ers without whom the club can not effectively function. Events this year and those who have participated n them are: Forestry Camp, sponsored by Sou'he"n Bell Telephone and Telegraph at Millstone 4-H Camp near Ellerbe, N. C. Douglas Fairchild was the Yancey Coun ty delegate along with other re presen'atives fom N. C.’s 100 counties.
