I just came across some quotes that I had sitting on my desk.

Last year I ran an 8 hour workshop at the

on Creating a Culture of Success. One of the first things we did in the session was have everyone write out what they thought success was, here are their responses.

Success is being able to pull a group together, while having fun, so they can accomplish a task later.

Success, in the context of summer camp, is when the campers become part of the community of fun, learning, friendship and courage. The campers go away with new experiences, knowledge & self-realization.

In a county 4-H setting success could be defined as achieving goals at the county and state level. It also could be considered as having a group of young interested members who are enjoying and doing well in projects.
