4-H as an organization emphasizes service for its members and will put those values to work this weekend.

Terri Miller-Casey, Extension Director at the University of Illinois Extension in Logan, Menard, and Sangamon Counties, explains this Saturday, they will be celebrating the 4-H National Day of Service, which encourages 4-Hers across the country to get out and serve their communities. 

Before the National Day of Service arrives, clubs will plan out what they would like to accomplish for their service project. Miller-Casey notes this conversation is led by the students.
