This week is National 4H Week in the United States and Clubs across the area are celebrating and getting the word out about what 4H means to them and encouraging other kids to get involved.

Fifteen year old Katie Ecord says being in 4H brings responsibility:
4H has been around for over 100 years and more and more youth are participating every year. 4H believes in the power of young people and realize that every child has valuable strengths and real influence to improve the world around us. If you would like to get your kids involved in 4H, call any of the local Extension Offices.
