H.R. No. 674
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Many students in Texas 4-H are gathering in Austin
on March 29, 2023, in celebration of 4-H Day at the State Capitol;
and
WHEREAS, Established as an agricultural club in Jack County
in 1908, 4-H is now the largest youth development program in the
state, with more than 550,000 students from every Texas county
taking part each year; the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and
the Prairie View A&M Cooperative Extension Program administer the
program and are assisted by more than 29,000 trained volunteers;
and
WHEREAS, The organization's name stands for Head, Heart,
Hands, and Health, reflecting different aspects of an individual's
personal and social responsibilities; guided by the motto "to make
the best better," today's clubs emphasize leadership, citizenship,
and strong character, help members to acquire valuable life skills,
and foster readiness for college and the workplace; participants
have the opportunity to engage in projects related not only to
agriculture but also to science, engineering, technology, natural
resources, and healthy lifestyles; in Texas, the most popular
programs are food and nutrition, agriculture awareness and
education, gardening and horticulture, and veterinary science; and
WHEREAS, According to a study conducted by the Institute for
Applied Research in Youth Development at Tufts University, 4-H
participants are four times more likely than their peers to
contribute to their communities; they are also twice as likely to
make healthier choices and to participate in science programs
outside of school; and
WHEREAS, Since its inception, 4-H has enriched the lives of
countless youths across the Lone Star State, and the program's
alumni have gone on to make a lasting, positive difference in their
communities and beyond; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 29, 2023, as 4-H Day at the State
Capitol and extend to all those in attendance sincere best wishes
for a memorable and productive event.
