A 4-H FAN'S Pledge

We Pledge to:

GUIDE our member down the 4-H road no matter how bumpy,
LIFT them up to meet the challenges along the way.

LEAD by example… being a good sport,
SUPPORT in actions not just words.

SHARE our skills, knowledge and talents to,
SHOW “how to”, but not do the project!

CHEER at home, during club meetings and in the 4-H stands,
APPLAUD the effort, progress and achievements.

EASE the pain of disappointment,
ENCOURAGE through focus on fun, friends, and learning to “Make the Best Better”

SHOUT how 4-H is our Family’s Affair,
HELP others catch the 4-H Spirit and join us as a 4-H FAN!
