“What 4-H Means to Me” – by Morelia Falcon

I believe the 4-H has played a big part in who I am today. To completely explain what 4-H means to me, I would have to start at the very beginning, so that is what I am going to do.
The very beginning of my 4-H journey starts in Hardin County, Ky. At the age of 6 I became a Cloverbud.
At a young age I learned patience, compassion, and how to respect and care for others. I discovered you can still have fun and learn remarkable things. I also found out that you can make really cool art with paint and chopped vegetables. While in Cloverbuds I was involved in the county’s Livestock Club. Although I could barely read and had no idea what was going on I enjoyed every second of it. During one meeting we …show more content…

I also entered many items in the Kentucky State Fair. Although I have many blue ribbons at state level, I am still trying to earn a state champion ribbon.
I learned to keep trying my best and never give up! Falcon

Through these clubs and activities I learned I have a passion for creating, volunteering, leadership and development, learning, teaching, and giving speeches and demonstrations.
As you can see I have learned many things through 4-H that I may have never learned if it weren’t for this amazing program. I would not be the person I am today without 4-H.

4-H is my life (I am a “4-H Nerd” as Mrs. Kindra says). 4-H is not just a club or program but a family, a family that will always be there for me. 4-H is a place where I am free to be myself. I love meeting new people who share the same interests and passions as I do. It’s hard to explain just how much this program means to me.
When I am older I hope to run for Kentucky State 4-H Teen Council President, and can contribute back to this amazing

  • Livestock: Positive Or Negatively Affects Kids In Life

    3059 Words  | 13 Pages

    There is an important question many people today wonder; I found that there are several people who see how showing livestock affects kids in school and in life. I chose this topic because so many people think that showing livestock is just a waste of time and money, but they have no idea what it entails. Other people don’t realize that showing livestock isn’t about the money or just having a pet. I am writing this paper because everybody should know that showing isn’t about having a pet, it’s about gaining responsibilities and learning new things that can help you later in life. Showing livestock helps children go farther in life because it teaches them more responsibility, they work harder, and they never give up on their dreams.
