Catawba County 4-H'ers Ship 20 Birds to Tampa, Fla., May 1, 1925

Club boys and girls in Catawba County shipped 20 birds to F.J. Germican of Tampa, Florida, to be used for exhibition purposes. These birds will be shown in Florida and Cuba. The club members also shipped 600 eggs for hatching purposes and only two were broken, reports County Agent J.W. Hendricks.

From page 3 of the May 1, 1925 issue of The News-Record, Marshall, N.C. The club boys and girls in this story weren't called 4-H'ers in 1925, but the Boys Clubs and Girls Clubs were the forerunners of the Extension Service's 4-H program.
