The Bell County 4-H Exchange Club has been in existence since the 90’s. Our County has a long tradition of Exchanging with other states and the opportunity to learn about other cultures. Some of your family/friends’ members were involved and can share their stories… each having their own unique experiences.
It is an opportunity of a lifetime… you learn about different cultures, share new ideas, make new friends, make lasting memories, and have a great time!!!
Exchange Objectives: To enrich our individual lives. To expand 4-H understanding beyond the local county to help meet the needs of our club, community, country, and world. To encourage further participation in the 4-H program with regards to project work, activities, and leadership responsibilities. To develop personally as an individual by learning to think and speak on your feet and to learn to live, work, and interact with people regardless of their customs, and beliefs.
Exchanges are mixed with educational programs and entertainment. The week is packed with many activities (early mornings and long evenings) to get maximum experience.
Commitments: Volunteering of your time is the major commitment for Exchange due to the nature of fundraising for activities during the two-year cycle. Guaranteed leadership opportunities and community service hours!
