THE 4-H LEADER - Wantedi - An enthusiastic, patient, community-oriented person with an interest in rural youth. Should have skills in organization, com- munications, conducting meetings, evaluation, and be willing to continually update these skills. Must be able to work with people. Some travel, long hours, unlîmited fite rest, no salary, but~ long laSting rewards. What's the job title? 4-H LEADER ! Projects are now being organized for Quilting and Personal Finance. Over 6,000 aduits volunteer every year to be club leaders in Ontario's 4-H programn because they enjoy the opportuniites 4-H offers. Thieir duties depend to some e 'xtent on their location, their club and their own individual talents, but one-day tralning workshops will prepare leaders for specific projects. Many 4-H club leaders help plan their club's program. Most leaders present the lessont material te their memrbers and pass on sorte of the training they have receiv- ed. Club leaders check pro- jet books, somte make visits to each of their members and some assist with coun.ty pro- gramis such as Achievement Days. But- aIl 4-H club leaders help our province's young people by teaching themr skills,1 developîng their in- dividual talents and feelings of self-worth, providing op- portunities for new ex- periences, listening to fchem, and by encouraging themi to "learn to do by doing" - the 4-H motto. Each November, five of Ontario's 4-H leaders attend the National 4-H Leaders' Conference held in Toronto. After the conference, these 5 outstanding leaders - along with Ontario's delegates fromt the three previous years - become part of the Ontario 4-H Leaders' Committee. Ontario's 4-H leaders make our program the suce- cess that it is - treat them with care, For more information, Contact Barbara Weese, R.O.S.
