Impact Report Socorro Family Fun Fest: A community wide youth day sponsored by CYFD was held during the month of March. Organizations were invited to present information to the public. Socorro County 4-H took advantage of the opportunity and developed hands-on stations allowing youth to make an item and take it with them. Socorro County 4-H Council Officers assisted the 4-H Agent by helping youth make dirt babies, play do and horse feed. The Socorro County 4-H County Council Officers were required to pair up and provide a hands-on activity for youth make and take home with them while teaching youth about the project at the same time. Over 150 youth were given material on 4-H through brochures and flyers. HANDS: Giving • Responsible Citizenship – Youth learn to be responsible by caring for their dirt baby at home; they have to make sure it has plenty of food and water or it will die. HEALTH: Living • Healthy Lifestyle Choices – Youth learned the difference between human and animal nutrition. They learned that there’s not much difference, we all require things to help maintain our body’s health. HANDS: Giving • Community Service Volunteering – The 4-H Council Officers volunteered their time to educate other youth in the community about 4-H and the opportunities it has to offer them. The youth are servicing the community by providing activities for youth in the community.
