My name is Dexter Woods. I am 10 years old and in the fourth grade. Last summer was my first year in 4-H. I learned a lot and had fun.
4-H has kids of all ages. My club, Liberty Belles and Boys, used Parliamentary Procedure to make the meetings run smoothly. Everyone had to do a demonstration. Mine was on tying knots for fishing. We also played games and had snacks at every meeting.
In July I went to 4-H camp at Camp Ohio. I got up early every morning to do the Polar Bear Swim, and I won a certificate.
Other activities at camp included creeking, dancing, archery and trivia. One night there was a campfire.
