Happy National 4-H Week!

This week, we're celebrating each of the four H's that make up the 4-H pledge: Head, Heart, Hands, and Health.

The First H: Head "I pledge my Head to clearer thinking."

In 4-H clubs and programs, youth are encouraged to think critically, solve problems, and make thoughtful decisions. Through hands-on learning experiences they develop patience, build effective communication skills, and gain confidence in their ability to learn and lead.

Whether they are planning a club activity, completing a project, or working as part of a team, 4-H helps young people strengthen the skills they need for success in school, work, and life.
