Ov
er 1,300 4-H'ers Attend Achievement Days
STATE COLLEGE - Veteran
and novice 4-H’ers gathered at
Penn State to compete in 22 con
tests at the annual State
Achievement Day held earlier this
week.
Traditional and nontraditional 4-
H competitions, designed to en
courage youths to greater
achievements, were staged with
emphasis appropriately on
achievement. Over 1,300 4-H
members qualified for competition
on the state level after completing
successful campaigns on the
county or regional levels.
In remarks made to the 4-H
assembly, Dr. Lamartine Hood,
Penn State’s dean of agriculture,
offered congratulations on the
recognition and achievement the 4-
H’ers attained to this point. Hood
encouraged them to make the most
of the week and said, “I challenge
you to reach out, make new friends
and make the most of your 4-H
experience."
After receiving an enthusiastic
welcome from the Bucks County
delegation, he recalled that he first
became interested in Penn State as
a Bucks County 4-H member. Hood
noted that the assembly was a
“chosen people” for having par
ticipated in 4-H projects and again
urged them to test their limits.
Participation in the
Achievement Days is up from
previous years which is indicative
of the support that the programs
receive on a county level and the
strength of the entire program,
said Dr. Alan Snider, Penn State’s
assistant director for 4-H youth
programs.
For three days the delegates
enjoyed the Penn State campus by
participating in socials and
competitions.
One of the more elaborate
contests, the Fashion Revue, kept
participants busy with meetings
and practices for the entire three
days. Selected from eight regions,
the Fashion Revue participants
presented a fashion show to their
fellow 4-H’ers and judges. At the
end of the evening, 10 individuals
were selected for the honors group.
They will be eligible to submit the
National 4-H Report for judging at
the state level.
