4-H

Public Presentations

The Public Presentation Program is frequently referred to as “the most beneficial and rewarding experience of all 4-H experiences”. In addition to improving public speaking skills, public presentations give 4-H members an excellent opportunity to research a subject, organize ideas in logical order, develop visual aids and learn to speak effectively before groups. With each public presentation, there is an increase in self-confidence, poise, self-esteem, stage presence and knowledge. Public presentations can teach a 4-H’er life skills that will be useful in his or her future social, educational and career pursuits.
