2
3 WELCOME TO ILLINOIS 4-H Did you know that 4-H members and leaders live all over Illinois, in all 50 United States, and in 82 other countries around the world! 4-H is for any youth between the ages of 5-18 years old regardless of where they live, in cities, in towns, or on farms. We understand that you may have many questions your first few years in the program and this guide will be there to help! If you have other questions that this guide does not answer, do not hesitate to call your local Extension office and talk to your 4-H program coordinator. The county offices are listed on the back page of this booklet. The goal of 4-H is to develop citizenship, leadership, responsibility and life skills of youth through experiential learning programs and a positive youth development approach. Though typically thought of as an agriculturally focused organization because of its history, 4-H today focuses on citizenship, healthy living, and science, engineering, and technology programs. EMBLEM, COLORS, PLEDGE, & MOTTO, SLOGAN: The four-leaf clover is the official 4-H emblem. The four H s stand for head, heart, hands, and health. The colors of 4-H are: Green- life, springtime, youth White- fresh, clean The 4-H pledge is: I PLEDGE My Head to clearing thinking, My Heart to greater loyalty, My Hands to larger service, My Health to better living, For my club, my community, my country, and my world. The 4-H motto - To Make the Best Better! The 4-H slogan - Learn by Doing 4-H members and volunteers should learn the pledge and try to follow it in their daily life. The motto is to remind us to always strive for improvement, to continually set goals and give every effort your best. 1
4 HOW DID 4-H BEGIN? 4-H had its national beginnings around the turn of the century, and Illinois was there from the start. The groundwork that led to 4-H, as we know it today, was laid by pioneers in educational work and leaders of farm organizations who realized the value of leisure-time group activities for young people. In 1899, W.B. Otwell, Secretary of the Macoupin County Illinois Farmer's Institute, furnished small packages of seed corn to 500 boys who were to grow corn and make an exhibit for the next gathering of the Farmer's Institute. This resulted in the organization of the first boy s corn club. In 1904, at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis, Missouri, 8,000 Illinois farm boys contributed to the corn exhibit at the Palace of Agriculture under the direction of Mr. Otwell. The first Illinois 4-H Club was the Union Pig Club organized by C.C. Coots in Macoupin County, in the spring of By 1917, over fifteen thousand members were enrolled in Illinois. 4-H has evolved over the years to match the changing needs of the children it serves. Today, community clubs offer youth opportunities to expand their knowledge in a multitude of project areas ranging from aerospace to woodworking. Emphasis is placed on helping members develop communication, decision-making, community service, citizenship, and leadership skills while building friendships that will last a lifetime. 2
5 4-H MEMBERSHIP & PROGRAMS Youth wanting to join 4-H must be between the ages of 5 to 18 and not passed their 19 th birthday by September 1 of the current year in order to be eligible. 4-H is open to all youth regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, or disability. 4-H members between the ages of 5-7 are considered Cloverbud members. Cloverbud members participate in unique 4-H projects that are age appropriate. Types of 4-H Clubs and Programs A 4-H member belongs to a 4-H club. A 4-H club is made up of at least five members and led by at least one adult volunteer. The 4-H year runs from September 1 thru August 31. The 4-H member chooses one to two projects at the beginning of the 4-H year and works on the project throughout the year. The finished project(s) are exhibited at the county 4-H show during the summer and if selected may be exhibited at the Illinois State Fair 4-H Show in August. 4-H Community Clubs: A community club consists of at least five members with at least one volunteer leader. The club meets a minimum of six times during the year however; a typical club often meets once a month. The club elects officers and holds a business meeting along with a planned program/activity at each meeting. Club activities can include demonstrations, project work, community service, and social events. 4-H Cloverbuds Cloverbuds is for youth between the ages of 5-7 as of September 1 of the 4-H year. Cloverbuds learn together and are activity focused. Cloverbuds may be an extension of a community club or they may be a group on their own. If they are an extension of a community club, they may participate in some of the community club activities. Cloverbud members are encouraged to display what they have learned during the year either as a group exhibit at the fair or individually with a poster. Cloverbuds are not eligible to exhibit at the Illinois State Fair. 3
6 SPIN Clubs SPIN clubs combine the concept of Special Interest Groups with the 4-H Club model to provide short-term positive youth development experiences. The club consists of at least five members with at least one volunteer leader. The club meets a minimum of six times during the year. Some type of a youth leadership team is encouraged along with the planning of a community service project. The club s focus is on a particular project or area for example it could be learning about Rockets or French cooking or Coin Collections. Shooting Sports Shooting Sports clubs combine the Special Interest Group with the 4-H Club model to provide a positive youth development experience. Shooting Sports is divided into three disciplines including: Archery, Air Rifle/Rifle and Shotgun. Each of these disciplines is led by a 4-H trained volunteer in the discipline. Each discipline must meet for a minimum of six times during the year. A Unit-wide and State competition are offered at the end of the program year. 4-H Enrichment Youth may also receive a 4-H learning experience presented or coordinated by Extension personnel as part of classroom or community activities. An example of this might be 4-H Health Jam, Conservation Day, Safety Day, Recycling program, Summer Gardening or Summer Cooking Classes etc. 4
7 WHO HELPS IN 4-H? 4-H is really a family program. Your parents and family are important in 4-H. They help you with project work and other activities. Volunteer leaders also help 4-H members. Every 4-H club needs one or more adult leaders. These leaders teach youth, organize the club, help officers, assist at meetings, and orient new parents about 4-H. There are various kinds of leaders in 4-H: Community Club Leaders: responsible for the general organization of the club Project Leader: helps members with their project work Jr. Leaders: 4-H teens who work with an adult leader to give leadership to activities, events, and/or projects Parents: parents are important in 4-H! They show interest and concern for their children by attending meetings, serving as leaders, helping in club activities, and serving on committees. All registered volunteers go through the Volunteer Screening process. To be adult leaders, you must apply and go through a screening process. This process ensures the protection of both the 4-H members and adult volunteer. WHAT DO YOU DO IN 4-H? In 4-H, youth learn by doing. Youth learn project skills, how to work with others as a team, and how to serve their community and country. 4-H Members may participate in some of the following activities: Project Work members choose at least one project of interest per year Demonstrations members learn to speak in front of others Recreation members play games and make new friends Community Service members help improve their community County Workshops members may choose to participate in county workshops Exhibits members exhibit their best project work at the county 4-H show and the Illinois State Fair Camps members may participate in 4-H Memorial Camp at Monticello, Illinois State Events Members may participate in state events such as Summer Illini Academy, Speaking for Illinois 4-H, Livestock Judging, Robotics Competition, Jr. Leadership Academy and much more 5
8 CLUB MEETINGS 4-H members are given the opportunity to learn and practice decision-making in group situations. 4-H members are expected to attend their club s meetings, and parents are encouraged to attend as well 4-H is a family affair! A 4-H meeting agenda looks something like this... Opening Call to Order Pledge of Allegiance 4-H Pledge Business Meeting Roll Call often a member will answer a specific question when his/her name is called such as What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? Secretary s Report Treasurer s Report Committee Reports Old Business New Business Program Talks & Demonstrations Guest Speakers Project Work Recreation & Refreshments Games Entertainment Snacks Sometimes a club can use the meeting time or schedule an additional time to work on projects, tour a specific business, have a fun outing, participate in a community service project, take a field trip, or have a special guest speaker. Meetings can be fun and educational when youth are actively involved, Learn by Doing. 6
9 WHAT DO CLUB OFFICERS DO? 4-H Club officers are elected by the members of the club. Elections are held at the beginning of the 4-H year usually in September or October. Sometimes clubs will elect Jr. Officers. In this case, the older more experienced officers will mentor the Jr. Officers, helping them learn the responsibilities of the office they hold. Each officer has a specific job. President The president leads the club meetings, creates the meeting agenda with the club leader and uses Robert s Rules of Order to run the meeting smoothly. Vice President Secretary The vice president leads in the meeting in the president s absence, introduces guests, and is the program chair. The secretary writes down what happens at the meetings, keeps attendance records, brings the secretary s book to all meetings, and keeps track of all communications. Treasurer The treasurer takes care of the club money, pays bills, keeps an accurate account of the club s finances, and reports at each club meeting. Reporter The reporter sends news stories to local newspapers and/or radio stations and plans publicity for events. Recreation Committee Chair The recreation leader leads games and other fun activities The chair is responsible for leading a club committee. The committee could be for a community service project, a social event or fundraising depending upon the needs of the club. 7
10 PROJECT WORK As a 4-H member, youth must choose at least one project. Choose a project that interests you. Projects provide the basis of the 4-H program by offering various education experiences. Carrying out a project will help the member learn by doing as well as learning why things happen the way they do. There are more than 40 different projects and each has multiple levels, so that a member may advance in skills and learning opportunities. Project manuals are available to order but you can also use other resources to help develop your project. 4-H FAIR The 4-H fair (held during the summer months) offers an opportunity to the 4-H member to have their finished 4-H project judged against a set of standards. The 4-H member will talk with the judge; explain what they have learned and how they developed their project. This can be a very positive and motivating part of the total 4-H experience. The judge will determine if the project meets the project criteria and then assign an award to the project, a white, red or blue ribbon. In some cases, additional awards are given in some project areas including: Best of Show, Grand Champion, Reserve Grand Champion, Class Champion, etc. These can be competitive and are often sponsored by outside organizations, clubs and families who have a general interest in the 4-H program. Remember that when you exhibit at the local 4-H show, you are asking for the judge s opinion. The judge s opinion is just that: an opinion, and it can vary from judge to judge and day to day. It is an opportunity to explain what you have learned, and it is an opportunity to learn from an expert. Each project is a success, no matter what color the ribbon may be. 8
11 DANISH SYSTEM The Danish system of judging is a method of evaluation where a 4-H exhibit or process is evaluated against a set of standards, and recognition is awarded on the degree to which the standard has been met by each 4-H member. The standards of excellence are often printed on a judge s scorecard, and allows for the 4-H exhibit to be judged on one s own merit, and not in comparison with others in the class. The following ribbons apply: WHITE: Fair, denotes much improvement needed. Fails to meet minimum standards. RED: Good, some improvements needed. Meets minimum standards. BLUE: Excellent, meets or exceeds the standards. Additional awards are given in some project areas 4-H FAIR TIMELINE check with your county staff for a more accurate timeline April May June June July August County Public Speaking Contest consists of a variety of different types of speeches youth may participate in including Formal Speech, Illustrated Speech, Original Works or Oral Interpretation.

18 PARENT S ROLE IN 4-H Parents have a significant role in 4-H. They are vital to a successful 4-H experience for their children. Parents provide encouragement and support for members to complete their 4-H club work including project work. Parents need to learn when the club meetings are and make sure the members get to the meetings and see that their children bring what is needed. Parents can help their children select, finance, and manage their projects. They also help by providing the equipment and materials their child needs for their projects. Parents help their children learn the requirements for the project and complete those requirements. Adults may answer questions, demonstrate skills, and offer guidance on project work but should not do the work themselves! Parents need to be familiar with the exhibit guidelines and judging schedules so they can help members be ready and on time for the various judging events. Adults can offer encouragement as young people prepare for conference judging and can provide support and reflection as youth complete the judging experience. Parents should also provide support and assistance to the total club. Leaders need and rely on parents help to make 4-H successful. Parents should attend the club meetings and events whenever possible and help as needed. 16
