4-H
What is 4-H? Isn't it just a program for farm kids?
Quite the contrary! There are many 4-H clubs all over the United States, in cities, out in the country, suburbs, wherever. The 4-H motto is, "Preparing young people to make a positive impact in their communities and in their world." That can't be done if only children in the country are going to 4-H programs!
I choose not to do 4-H, mostly because my family is very busy and we often can't squeeze in the time for other subjects. I also show at ARBA-sanctioned shows, and 4-H just isn't an outlet I need for my rabbitry.
The 4 H's of 4-H are HEAD (managing, thinking), HEART (relating, caring), HANDS (giving, working), and HEALTH (being, living).
The 4-H pledge 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, my country, and my world."
Without actually being involved in 4-H myself, this is really all I can say about it. To find out more, and to find the 4-H office nearest you, go HERE.
