Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Tabetha Burnham of Lincoln as winner of the July “Heart of 4-H Award” in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.
She is a project leader for the Fusion 4-H’ers club, which has been recognized as Nebraska Club of Excellence the past three years. She helps with the monthly meetings and club’s many community service projects, including Kiwanis Karnival. In addition, Tabetha has helped at the Lancaster County Super Fair during 4-H static exhibit judging and in the 4-H food stand.
“I have a passion for serving our community and growing our youth,” she says. “My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer was learning to sew with my daughter and adding another hobby to my list. Thanks to our wonderful leaders with amazing sewing skills, we have both learned so much. I wanted to learn so I could be another pair of hands to help our club and my daughter with sewing. We now have a sewing room in our house and enjoy making several items.”
Lancaster County 4-H thanks Tabetha for donating her time and talents. People like her are indeed the heart of 4-H!
