Community THE DAILY GLOBE, Ironwood. Ml Monday, Oct. 6. 1997 Page6 National 4H Week, Oct. 5-11 4H opportunities are valuable When young people have the opportunity to learn skills in classes offered through schools or other community groups, what makes 4H come out on The 4H Club setting provides small group, interactive learning experience that teach young people not only skills in career exploration, but also leadership, responsibility, communication, and social skills," says Carol Saan, Gogebic County 4H Program Assistant.

"Members of 4H clubs learn the value of cooperation and working with others to complete a task." Saan explains that children are more likely to participate in activities they enjoy and find satisfying. 4H provides active and fun education events while helping young people develop a scale of values, their social personalities, and acceptable societal roles. Youngsters also build a wholesome attitude about themselves and achieve personal independence. "Greater emphasis should be put on the process that members go through in a 4H club rather than the end product," Saari said. For example, giving 4Hers the responsibility of making meals on a camping trip is more important than the perfect blueberry muffins that may be a leader's specialty, even if everyone must eat the slightly burnt product of the camper.

As part of Gogebic County 4H, parents can help their children their 4H projects. Candy Vuorenmaa helps her son, Trevor, with a craft for the Gogebic County 4H Community 4H mixes together boys and girls, ages 5-19. The result is a unique youth program meeting the needs of today's young people in Gogebic County. Call Saari at the Gogebic County MSU Extension Office, 932-14290, for more information about 4H.

It comes and goes. Some days are better than others. Yet, her depressive state never seems to completely disappear.

"Your whole outlook on life changes. You have a tendency to look at the negative rather than the positive in situations." Depression can strike anyone at any time. It affects young and old, men and women. In an effort to create public awareness of depression, a free depression screening will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct.

8, in the General Hospital Conference Center. The screening, an example of a community benefit offered via MGH, will be held in conjunction with National Mental Awareness Week. The depression screening includes a written self-test for depression. Dr. Anthony J.

Holtgang of Upper Michigan Behavioral Health Service at MGH will then make an educational presentation entitled, "Unmasking Depression." A video on depression will also be shown. Mental health professionals will be available following the program to discuss results related to individual depression screens. Symptoms of depression include: loss of pleasure; feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness; changes in sleeping and eating patterns; irritability, anxiousness and restlessness; inability to concentrate; fatigue or loss of energy; unexplained aches and pains; and thoughts of death or suicide. Jill Bruno-Enright, supervisor of the CARES program at the Regional MedicaJ Center at MGH and one of the principle organizers of the fourth-annual event, is enthusiastic about the depression screening. think it's a great opportunity for the public to participate and learn about the signs and symptoms of depression," Bruno-Enright said.

Statistically, 17.5 million Americans suffer from depression. "People will often feel hopeless and powerless in their lives if their depression has not been diagnosed or treated," Bruno-Enright said. Learning to talk about depression is half the battle, the Marquette County woman said. "Some people are depressed and don't know it. You know something is wrong but you can't put your finger on it," she said.

"Counseling is available. With counseling, you learn to look at life with more of a positive atti- tude. "You have to learn to admit it. When you do, you can reach out, find the help and have a better quality of life as a result of it. I think the depression screening is a good idea, and I would encourage anyone who thinks they may be suffering from depression to attend."
