Thoughts from a Mingo

“Mingo sing about being jolly and true. My time in 4H has shown me what being "true" really means. I learned how to be a true friend, one who may not be there every day but on every day that matters. I learned how to be a true citizen, one who tries to better the community in any little way possible. I learned how to be true to myself, becoming someone who has fortitude, compassion and that little bit of funny stunt always present. 4H has changed my life is more ways than I can ever list or imagine. I want to provide that spark to the next generation, as my counselors and tribemates did for me. That's why I continue to support 4H, to try and make the best better.”
