4-H has been a part of my life since before I was in Kindergarten. I gave my first speech, I learned how to create a check register, found a new love in dairy goats, and developed creativity.
I have gotten to experience numerous life changing experiences through UW-Extension programs. More specifically, my involvement in 4H has become a part of my identity.
When I was younger, my Boy Scouts troop disbanded for various reason, so then I decided to join 4-H. That decision was the greatest of my life. It opened doors, made me friends, and help me set goals that still carry me through college today.
UW-Extension has touched my life for 5 decades. I was an avid 4-H'er as I grew up and have supported and participated with other families children and now my grand kids.
UW-Extension's nutrition education program has been awesome for my 1st grade class. We received so many positive comments during parent-teacher conferences. One family stated that they now eat whole wheat bread because their daughter tried it in our class. Thanks Ms. Evelyn!!
My dad bought me a calf when I was 6 years old. This sparked my interest in 4-H and showing animals. Since then, 4-H has truly changed my life with opportunities and experiences that I wouldn't have gotten anywhere else.
I registered my children in 4-H to have all of them in one organization. It has been a great opportunity for them and for myself to try and learn new things, as well as form new friendships in our new 4-H family.
I joined 4-H when I was 6 years old and ever since I have met a bunch of new people from all over Wisconsin. 4-H has really helped me improve my leadership and public speaking skills. 4-H is a very cool experience that everyone needs to try.
I did not grow up in 4-H, Â but joined when our oldest daughter was 6 years old. She joined as a Cloverbud and I joined as a leader. That was 19 years ago.
