                               RESOLUTION


 
To proclaim April 5, 1995, as National 4-H Day, and for other purposes.

Whereas the Senate is proud to honor the National 4-H Youth Development Program 
        of the Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service for 
        85 years of experience-based education to young people throughout the 
        United States;
Whereas this admirable Program seeks to provide a learning experience for the 
        whole child (including head, heart, hands, and health) and help children 
        of the United States to acquire knowledge, develop life skills, and form 
        attitudes to enable the children to become self-directed, productive, 
        and contributing members of society;
Whereas the 5,500,000 urban, suburban, and rural participants in the Program, 
        ranging from 5 to 19 years of age, hail from diverse ethnic and 
        socioeconomic backgrounds and truly represent a cross-section of the 
        United States;
Whereas the Program could not have achieved success without the service of the 
        more than 65,000 volunteers who have given generously of their time, 
        talents, energies, and resources; and
Whereas throughout the proud history of the Program, the Program has developed 
        positive role models for the youth of the United States and (through its 
        innovative and inspiring programs) continues to build character and to 
        instill the values that have made the United States strong and great: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) proclaims April 5, 1995, as National 4-H Day;
            (2) commends the 4-H Youth Development Program and the many 
        children and volunteers who have made the Program a success; 
        and
            (3) requests the President to issue a proclamation calling 
        on the people of the United States to observe the day with 
        appropriate ceremonies and activities.
                                 <all>
