While other participants have been together in 4-H for many years building lasting friendships I am just starting my 4-H experience at 15 and it is very daunting. I believe I am a great candidate for this Award trip for exactly that reason. I am entering into my career in 4-H as an exploration for my future. I want to explore and learn all that this trip would expose me to. I am at the age where I need to start looking into colleges and career choices. My interests have me looking at engineering or architecture. To be honest I am uncertain about my course of action at this time. I know that I would be meeting young adults that are in the same situation as me. I hope to make new friendships that will help me to explore and spark an interest for a future career.
