Find 4-H Where You Live 

This 40-page activity guide provides a "treasure hunt" for children to explore the joys of 4-H on their own, by discovering their interests, potential 4-H projects, and finding 4-H where they live, with the guidance of parents or other adult helpers. The "exploration" theme is meant to actively engage a child as he or she embarks on a personal journey to discover the exciting opportunities (treasures) available in 4-H.

The Youth Guide is in a workbook format and includes activities for a child to complete with a project helper, such as a teacher, parent or club leader. A "map" accompanies each activity to guide the exploration. Each step is clearly identified with headings such as Start Here, Travel Log, Map it Out and X Marks the Spot. New terms are introduced and defined in the section labeled Compass Points. It is arranged in the following six chapters:
