I pledge my head to clearer thinking,
My heart to greater loyalty,
My hands to larger service,
And my health to better living,
For my club, my community, my country, and my world.
4-H is not just about animals. The programs are grounded in the belief that kids learn best by doing in areas like the arts, science, health, and agriculture. The organization has over 6 million members in the United States ages 5-19. To learn more about clubs in Santa Cruz County go to: http://cesantacruz.ucanr.edu/Youth_Development/
