HOUSE RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, The members of the Illinois House of
Representatives wish to recognize the 100th anniversary of the
founding of the Silverleaf 4-H club in 2017; and
WHEREAS, 4-H started in 1914 under the National Boys and
Girls Club Work program; the 4-H Club unified many local farm
and rural youth programs; now, 4-H is worldwide and has
expanded from just agricultural and nutrition to whatever
inspires the imagination; and
WHEREAS, 4-H reaches kids in every corner of America - from
urban neighborhoods to suburban schoolyards to rural farming
communities; it has a network of 500,000 volunteers and 3,500
professionals that provide caring and supportive mentoring to
all six million 4-H'ers, helping them grow into true leaders
today and in life; and
WHEREAS, The anniversary will be celebrated with shared
memories, ice cream, pie, and cake on the afternoon of July 8,
2017 at the McLean County Fairgrounds in Bloomington;
therefore, be it
