The theme of the 2002 Cleveland County Fair is Celebrating 100 Years of 4-H. Dr. Seaman Knapp is credited with founding the youth organization in 1902. His goal was to promote agricultural awareness, as well as to foster ideals of good citizen- ship such as loyalty, service, and com- munity pride. The first North Carolina 4-H club was a corn club in Hertford County, begun in 1909. The program was established in Cleveland County in 1914. An early advo- cate of 4-H in North Carolina was Cleveland County native L.R. Harrill. As North Carolina's first Agricultural Agent to work full time with 4-H, Harrill became known as "Mr. 4-H". In 1926, he became the first North Carolina State 4-H Club Leader; he held this position until 1963. On April 11, 2002, Mr. Harrill became the first North Carolinian inducted into the National 4-H Hall of Fame. Through the years, 4-H has been an integral part of The Cleveland County Fair. Times change, and the commodities of today's 4-H have adapted through the years. The club still fosters agriculture, but today also encourages many other fields of study such as aerospace and electronics. Today the club's motto "To Make the Best Better," still applies and still inspires many 4-H members to great achievments. _ Opening Day Ceremonies for The 2002 Cleveland county fair will be at 5pm Thursday, Septembet 26, at the Grandstand.
