My 4-H Club's President

Improved Essays
I am my 4-H club’s president. My club has 52 people in it with most of them being under the age of ten. Sometimes I regret running for president, but then at other times I feel it is a great leadership experience. The duties of a president are not only running the meetings and showing animals. It is about helping out the community, helping the younger members with their projects and teaching them how to be a better person and also teach them responsibility with taking care of their animals.

Now on to my projects; I show market rabbits, I am doing a fishing project book, a rabbit project book and a grill master project book. This is only my first year of 4-H so this is a lot of responsibility to take on but I feel that I can get it done and I will get it done.

I am going to explain to you each one of my projects starting off with the fishing one. In the fishing project book You learn about natural resources, the anatomy of certain species of fish and of course you learn how to fish and take care of them. The book also has a cool little section in it where you can track what kind of fish you caught, the weight of the fish, the length of the fish and what kind of bait you caught it on.

This is definitely my most important project because you have take care of another living thing and this is the project that most people associate with 4-H. I have two market rabbits(That means I am going to sell them). When you show two rabbits at 4-H you sell one for packer bid and the other one you take into the show ring to sell. You make most of the money by selling in the ring. The way you sell in the ring is by walking around the arena with your rabbit cradled in your arms while an auctioneer shouts out dollar amounts and people will raise their card with their number on it if they would like to bid on your

    The 4-H program has impacted my life in many ways; first it has allowed me to discover and nurture my passion for serving children in foster care, as well as, their families. In addition, I have gained the skill of public speaking, especially extemporaneous speeches, as well as, learning to set and reach goals; rand ealizing that "mistakes are proof that you are trying." In addition, I have learned the power of true friendship and can truly say my 4-H friends are also my family. This amazing program has shown me that I lead best by inspiration; by inspiring others to go above and beyond their comfort zone and to not be afraid of failure.

As a month of planning, proposals, and meetings in the trash because the weather was no longer hot so we wanted to change the topic to something people need every single day of their lives. An idea I pushed for was water because you will survive one water longer than food for many reason.…
