WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
welcome the young citizens from across the state who have come to | ||
Austin to celebrate 4-H Day at the State Capitol on March 25, | ||
2015; and | ||
WHEREAS, Texas 4-H traces its beginnings to a Jack County | ||
corn club that began with 25 original members in 1908; today, | ||
members from both rural and urban areas have access to an | ||
extensive network of 4-H programs that are administered by the | ||
Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and the Prairie View A&M | ||
Cooperative Extension Program; and | ||
WHEREAS, The 4-H community consists of young people across | ||
the nation who are learning the skills they need to succeed in | ||
life; the club seeks to meet the challenges of childhood through | ||
a coordinated, progressive series of educational experiences | ||
that enhance life skills and help young citizens develop social, | ||
emotional, physical, and cognitive competencies; and | ||
WHEREAS, The 4-H program encourages wise and productive | ||
use of the four Hs, which stand for head, hands, heart, and | ||
health; through the years, millions of Texas youths have used the | ||
4-H pledge as a framework for building bright and successful | ||
futures; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend the members and volunteers of Texas | ||
4-H on the occasion of 4-H Day at the State Capitol and extend to | ||
them best wishes for a rewarding visit to Austin; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the organization as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
Estes | ||
