Only a greenhorn would underestimate the importance of good breeding. It affects the ride.
The spirit. The determination to go the distance. John Deere’s bloodline is second to none.
That's why jobs like hauling hay, tending pastures and fixing fences seem like second nature.
No wonder you wouldn’t trust your land to anything else. Just don’t be surprised if those
horses smile a little every time you pass. Your Land is Your World.

4-H leaders are
awesome
The 4-H program relies
on volunteer adult leaders to orga
nize and lead groups of 4-H mem
bers. Research shows that youth
who have a non-parental adult as
a friend, teacher, and mentor do
better than youth without such an
adult presence. As a 4-H leader
and educator, you are in a position
o f great influence. You can chan
nel members’ curiosity, inspire
new interests, and continually
offer new opportunities for them
to grow and develop into happy
and productive adults. You can
be the key to a young person’s
success.
A recent study showed
that most 4-H leaders volunteer
because they are interested in
making a difference in the lives
o f young people. While some
4-H leaders have expertise in a
particular content area, such as
animal science, it is not a require
ment. The 4-H program is always
looking for quality, committed
adult volunteers. If you are in
terested in exploring becoming a
4-H volunteer, please call or visit
the Extension office.
Studies show that each
4-H volunteer gives an average
of 200 hours of time annually to
the 4-H Youth Development pro
gram. Looking at Oregon’s 6,000
volunteers, that means l ,200,000
hours are given annually to help
youth develop skills for a lifetime.
Nationally, the current estimated
dollar value of volunteer time is
about $20 per hour. “Not only
are 4-H volunteer leaders awe
some, but the value of their time
to Oregon 4-H is more than $20
m illion annually,” said a 4-H
spokesperson.
