i^-H youngsters are enrolling this
week at the Extension Office for
their summer Camp at King's Lake.

and lasts until 1:30 P.M. on July

ject work up-to-date are eligible

a fino camp is expected.
In this district there arc 19 lp-H
Clubs and two members who are work
ing on individual projects, not with
in a club. Ton clubs are in the im
mediate Valley, seven around Wasil
la, one in Chugiak, and one in Glen
Allcn. The total membership is 156.
[(.-H'ors are encouraged to take
only one project at a time, unu car
ry it to completion. However, a
fev; feel that they can do justice
to more than one project—there are
20 members working on two projects
this summer.
These projects vary. Bakind pro
jects rank high with 86 enrolled;
gardening next with IpO; 19 doing
sowing projects and 17 in clothing.
Wo are pleased to have 8 members
raising dairy calves; but only one
in poultry. Throe members are im
proving their yards.
If the entire family is interest
od, tho chances for the success of
the 1+-H members are much greater.tar
ents can do more than anyone el3e in
helping their boys and girl3 plan
and carry to completion the projects
selected.
In addition to carrying a project
to completion, a l|.-h member is fur
ther benefitted in these ways:
1. ip—H work offers training in
better practices in the home,
on tho farm, in workshop and
community.
z. 4-h work orrors creative ana
constructive activities and.
training in social life through
club activities, as hikes,trips
games, picnics and summer camps
3. Through such activities, a Ij-H
member learns to get alone: bet
tor with others, and make friends
more easily.
We always welcome new Ip—H members.
