During 4-H Week, Oct. 5 to 11, Virginia 4-H will celebrate some of its successes and look to the future. “Our past is our wonderful alumni which includes the current Miss Virginia,” said Robert Ray Meadows, director of the state 4-H program.

‘The future will include successes for the nearly 207,000 4-H’ers in Virginia today. 4-H provides educational experiences that help youngsters to develop many skills,” said Meadows.

The youngsters in 4-H sign up for projects in one of the 10 curriculum areas such as animal science, careers and economic development, communications and expressive arts, family science, foods, nutrition, and health, leadership and personal development.

4-H is the youth development program of Virginia Cooperative Extension, a part of Virginia Thch and Virginia State universities.

Nancy Amanda Redd, who won the title of Miss Virginia early in the summer, was a member of 4-H at Martinsville in Henry County.

4-H is for young people between the ages of 5 and 19 years of age. Special materials are available for youngsters between 5 and 8 years of age. These 4-H’ers are called Cloverbuds and participate in projects designed for their ages.

The following is a listing of most of the 4-H dubs in the county:
