Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Sadie Hammond of Lincoln as winner of the September “Heart of 4-H Award” in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.
A former Lancaster County 4-H member and summer intern, she has volunteered with 4-H for 5 years. Sadie helps in a variety of ways at the Lancaster County Super Fair:
• Co-superintendent of the Table Setting contest.
• One of the superintendents of the static exhibit General Areas (which includes posters, entomology and entrepreneurship).
• Assists with the Fashion Show.
“I like being a 4-H volunteer because this is a cause I’m very passionate about,” she says. “4-H is where young people make new friends, develop new skills, become leaders and help shape their communities. I want to provide youth with positive experiences in a safe and welcoming environment in order to help them gain life skills. My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer is seeing 4-H’ers come back year after year growing and developing new skills.”
