The. projects that the girls and boys do complete, regardless of the place they win, takes work and effort. This is something that credit has to be given for undertaking and completing. Many girls and boys simply will not accept the responsibilities of a 4-H project, The ones that do, show something extra especially in the busy life of today. If you attend the 4-H Fair, be sure to plan on visiting the exhibits, the real reason for the fair.
