3 WELCOME TO 4-H YOUTH DEVELOPMENT! We hope your family's involvement in this exciting youth organization will enrich your lives. This handbook should help to answer many of the questions you may be asking. Your club leader can be a great help to you - just ask. If we can be of any help to you, please don't hesitate to pick up the phone and call, drop us an or stop by the Stearns County Extension Office for a visit. We look forward to working with you. 4-H IS... an informal, practical, learn-by-doing educational program for youth. It helps them establish real-life goals and become competent, productive citizens. And they have fun in the process! In 4-H, young people learn about and solve problems facing them and their communities. The knowledge and skills they acquire in 4-H opens the door to a lifetime of personal growth. 4-H EMBLEM Head - Mental Development Deeper knowledge and reasoning Heart - Emotional Development Developing interest, appreciation, and wholesome attitudes. Hands - Skills Development Ability to do, skill in doing, and habit of doing. Health - Physical Development Understanding and appreciating a growing and changing body. 4-H COLORS Green and White The white in the 4-H flag symbolizes purity. The green, nature's most common color, is emblematic of life, springtime, and youth. 4-H MOTTO "To Make the Best Better" 4-H PLEDGE 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 family, my club, my community, my country, and my world. Members raise their right hands to their foreheads when they say, "My Head to clearer thinking". They lower them to their hearts as they say, "My Heart to greater loyalty". At the line, "My Hands to larger service," they extend their palms upward. At the line, "My Health to better living" they stand at attention with their hands at their sides and remain in that position until the close of the pledge.
4 Well, can I be part of the fun? Youngsters can become involved with 4-H in two different ways! Either through a one-time experience, such as 4-H Adventures or Afterschool; or by enrolling in a 4-H club. Yes, you can be a part of the fun! 4-H community club membership is open to youth kindergarten through one year after graduation from high school without regard to race, creed, color, sex, national origin or disability. Both city and rural youth may belong to 4-H. ENROLLMENT PROCEDURE (Re) Enrollment is online at: The 4-H program year is Oct. 1 Sept. 30, however reenrollment by October 15 is requested. Members enroll by selecting one or more project areas to work on during the year. If you're in grades K-2, enroll as a Cloverbud. A complete listing of projects is available online at: Parents should work closely with their child in project selection. Keep in mind: - Child's interests - Materials or equipment needed - Cost of the project - Who can help the child (parent, leader, or neighbor) - Amount of time available to spend on the project We recommend only one or two projects for first year 4-H'ers. You can receive or purchase a "project bulletin" with information about the project. Bulletins are written at the 4-H'ers level. Additional project help is available by asking your club project leader. THE MEETING IS CALLED TO ORDER The monthly 4-H club meeting is the starting point to learning. Clubs decide for themselves where and when they will meet. This is done yearly when the year's program is planned. Each club decides if they will have dues and how much it will be. Ask your club leader about your club's policies. Here is what you can expect at a club meeting. Call to Order - by president, to have everyone sit down and bring attention to the meeting. Flag Pledges - American pledge followed by 4-H pledge. Roll Call - led by secretary. A theme is selected each time for the member to respond (example: name your favorite flower). Secretary's Report - reading of the minutes from the previous meeting. Treasurer's Report - reading of money taken in and spent, and approvals for money to be spent. Committee Reports - specific activities may have groups of members and parents working on an event. At this time, they report on any decisions their group made since the last meeting. Old Unfinished Business - items brought up at previous meetings where decisions need to be finalized. New Business - new items of discussion. Announcements - leaders may make a few comments at this time. Adjournment - usually the president will ask for a motion to adjourn the meeting. This is a good time for a new member to make or second a motion.
5 Demonstrations - usually every member has the opportunity to show and tell what they've learned in one of their 4-H projects during the year. Guest Speaker - clubs will sometimes invite someone to speak to the group. This can be people from the community or parents of club members who are willing to share their favorite hobby. Clubs are usually looking for ideas - so feel free to suggest ideas! Recreation - optional. Refreshment - a light snack ends the meeting. Some clubs offer a glass of juice, others offer sandwiches and more. The parents may want to decide at the beginning of the year what type of refreshment they want to provide. YOUR FAMILY'S ROLE AT A CLUB MEETING 4-H Members Sit attentively during the meeting Learn the 4-H club pledge Answer roll call Participate in discussions after being recognized by club president Make or second a motion Vote Volunteer for committees or tasks of interest Give a demonstration or project talk once during the year Parents Provide transportation to the meeting Attend meetings whenever possible Provide refreshments following the meeting one or more times during the year Take note of dates or commitments for your family Open your home for a 4-H meeting (if asked) Volunteer to assist members on club activities of interest Duties of Club Leaders There are many opportunities to give leadership in 4-H clubs. Leaders' roles may be filled by parents or other interested adults from the community. All selected adults will complete a 4-H volunteer screening. Clubs vary on how leaders are selected. Some rotate leadership roles among all parents; in other clubs the members elect their leader; in some clubs the Activity Leader becomes the Key Leader the following year. Ask your club leader how your leaders are selected. Duties of the club leaders are as follows:
6 Organization Leader (Key Leader) Extension Office's key contact person for the club Distributes and collects enrollment materials or asks another leader to do this task Recruits project leaders Coordinates club meeting agendas with club president and rest of the officers Coordinates club program planning (guest speakers, etc.) Attends Annual Leaders Conference in fall Activity Leader Recruits parent and youth leader support for planning activities such as: Fundraising project, club trip, parties (Halloween, Christmas, etc.), county fair booth, banner, and scrapbook. Project Leader Usually a project leader is selected for a project when three or more members are enrolled in a project. Assists members in project selection As a group, they plan the summer club project tour Gives project training "lessons" involving the members in their project. This can be done after a regular 4-H meeting or on a separate day Assists with project evaluation and county fair exhibits Duties of Club Officers President: Presides at all 4-H meetings. May appoint committees as needed. Vice President: Serves in the absence of the president. May serve as chairperson. Secretary: Records minutes of actions of the meeting. Treasurer: Keeps an up-to-date financial record of the club's income and expenditures. Write checks. Reporter: Writes interesting reports of club meetings and events for local newspaper. Historian: Keeps pictures and articles about club activities in a scrapbook. Recreation/Song Leader: Plans and leads songs and games at the 4-H meeting. DEMONSTRATION TIPS Project talks or demonstrations before a 4-H club are a great learning experience for a 4-H member. The child learns to speak in front of a group. Think of "show and tell" as your first year member's demonstration. Have him/her bring something to the meeting they've made and have them tell how they did it. Preferably the demonstration will be from one of their 4-H projects. The idea is having them get in front of a group and have a good experience. You can build on the first experience in following years. The 4-H'er can actually do steps in the making of an object or illustrate something they've learned. To polish off a demonstration, add posters to highlight important points.
7 WRITTEN PROJECT EVALUATION Project evaluations are a great way for a member to check their progress in a project. Members in all projects will receive records or guidelines for project evaluation in the fall. Specific questions are asked appropriate to the projects. Be sure to keep track of all activities that you are involved in that could be included on your record. Some helpful tips in project evaluations are: Discuss the record with your child when you receive it from your leader. Decide together what you will work on. Jot things down when they happen on a calendar (example: when John makes a snack for the family, mark in your 4-H calendar). Ask your adult or youth leaders if something is unclear. Keep all 4-H records, bulletins, etc., in one place. Project evaluations are due to your club Key Leader in August. They will review them and offer suggestions to your child. STEARNS COUNTY 4-H PROGRAM THE 4-H NEWSLETTER: CLOVER UPDATE As a 4-H family, you will receive an listing the monthly online newsletter articles, which will highlight upcoming county and state 4-H events and activities. Newsletter articles are available the 1st of each month at: However, we publish articles throughout the month, so check the website frequently. COUNTY 4-H FEDERATION AND ADVISORY COUNCIL Your voice is important in helping guide the future of the Stearns County 4-H Program. The county 4-H Federation and Advisory Council meetings are your opportunity to be heard. Our county is divided into five geographic areas. Each area has an adult leader and two youth leader representatives on the Advisory Council elected at the September Federation meeting. The officers of the Advisory Council are elected by the entire group that evening. The Federation meets in September, October, January and May. Open Advisory Council meeting dates will be in the newsletter. If you have any suggestions or concerns about the 4-H program, give your Area Representative a call. STEARNS COUNTY JUNIOR LEADERS The Junior Leader group is open to all 4-H'ers 7 th grade and up. Members interested in being involved as an Junior Leader should enroll in Youth Leadership as a project. This ensures members of receiving information on all the activities of this exciting group. Junior Leaders have three main purposes: service to 4-H and the community, to provide educational programs of interest to teens, and recreation. The Junior Leader group helps conduct and plan county events. Teens select speakers for meetings which have included male/female relationships, assertiveness, winter survival, team building, leadership, understanding differences, parliamentary procedure, etc. All group activities are planned by teens for teens.
8 AWARDS A variety of awards are given at the county level. The major ones are listed below. More details on each award and basis for selection can be obtained at the Extension Office. Outstanding Officers (Secretary, Historian, Reporter) One or more in each office are named yearly to recognize members who did an outstanding job in their club officer role. Outstanding Youth Leader Award To recognize teens who were of great service to others in 4-H and showed leadership talents, one or more teens are named annually.
