4-H Pledge:I pledge

My HEAD to clearer thinking,

My HEART to greater loyalty,

My HANDS to larger service,

And my HEALTH to better living.

For

My club, my community,

My country, and my world.

4-H Motto:“To Make the Best Better”

4-H Colors:Green – symbolic of living and

growing things

White – symbolic of purity and

character

4-H Emblem:The green four-leaf clover has a

white “H” on each leaf to represent

one of the four H’s – HEAD,

HEART, HANDS and HEALTH.

Welcome!The Cloverbud program is designed for up to three years of a child’s life (ages 5, 6 and 7). 4-H age is considered to be the age of the Cloverbud on Sept. 1 of the current 4-H year. The 4-H year goes from Sept. 1 to Aug. 31.

Each Cloverbud member will receive a Cloverbud Member Book to record his or her lessons and accomplishments throughout the year. The main purpose of this booklet is to encourage youngsters to learn the life-long skill of keeping records. Encourage your child to complete as much of the booklet as he or she can himself or herself. Parents also can be involved in completing this booklet.The booklet should be completed by the end of the 4-H year and turned into the 4-H leader. Cloverbuds who complete their member booklet may be recognized at the annual 4-H awards program. Speak with your local county Extension agent to learn more.

Enjoy your year with your very special Cloverbuds!
