County youth celebrating
National 4-H Week
By LAURISCHATTENBKKG
County Extension Agent-HE
Cherokee County 4-H members
are celebrating National 4-H Week
this week, October 4-10! Theme of
this year’s observance is “4-H for
Youth for America." Cherokee
County is proud to have over 200 4-H
members who are among more than
305,000 in Texas and 4.5 million
across the country who will par-
ticipate in the week-long
celebration.
In celebrating National 4-H Week,
we recognize that 4-H is truly a
people development program. 4-H
helps young people develop skills
that will be useful in the real world
It helps them discover their
strengths and weaknesses. It ex-
poses them to activities in a variety
of career fields and helps them to
build postive self concepts for direc-
ting their lives. And, most iniportan
tly, 4-H’ers learn and have fun doing
it. And families can add to the fun by
learning and growing together.
Learning doesn’t stop with the 4-H
member and family. Volunteer
leaders learn new skills while
sharing their expertise with young
people. Through a network of volun
teer leaders, state landgrant
universities, state and local gover
nments and the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, 4-H has been able to
stimulate youth todevelop life ski 11s.
Over 65 adult volunteer leaders
work with 4-H boys and girls in
Cherokee County through 10 dif
ferent 4-H clubs.
4-H’ers can choose from some 70
different project and program areas
designed to help them prepare for
the future.
More information about the 4-H
program is available at the
Cherokee County Extension office
by calling 683-5416.
