Value of Demonstrations
One of the significant features of 4-H club work is that club members
learn Iby doing. As they carry club projects, following improved farm
and home practices, they are demonstrators. To make the work of the
demonstrator of real benefit in the life of the community as well as to
the club member, public demonstrations are an important factor.
The training which the club member receives in preparing and presenting a demonstration is of great value to him. He must study his
problem and know his subject if he is to explain and show a piece of
work. The experience he gains by appearing in public is valuable in
developing confidence and leadership. Team demonstrations make for
cooperation among club members.
Demonstrations should be of value to the community in stimulating
interest and enthusiasm in improved agricultural and homemaking practices. They offer an opportunity for the public to see the type of training club members are receiving and to realize the value of club work.
