Impact Report 4-H Awareness Fair The first-ever “4-H Showcase – The Inside Scoop” was held to publicize the 4-H program in Chaves County, with the agent and key 4-H leaders coordinating the event. This 4-H “Awareness Fair” was held on a Saturday at the Roswell Mall. The Chaves County 4-H club members constructed a total of 23 small exhibits about various 4-H projects to educate the public about what is available through the 4-H program. The exhibits contained a “hands-on” activity for the public to “make and take” an item, which demonstrated the “Learn By Doing” approach that has made 4-H successful. The 4-H youth manned the exhibits, visited with the public, and conducted the project activities. 4-H youth gained leadership skills while participating in this activity while the public gained information about the New Mexico 4-H program. Publicizing the 4-H program assures that the program is offered to all youth and adults.
