Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Kristyn Jones of Lincoln as winner of the December “Heart of 4-H Award” in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.

A Norris FFA Advisor for 18 years, Kristyn has volunteered at 4-H/FFA livestock shows at the Lancaster County Fair. Most recently, she has helped with the beef show.

Growing up, she was a 4-H member in Colfax County.

“I like being a 4-H volunteer because I am able to work with my Norris students outside of the classroom and really see what they are passionate about — agriculture!,” says Kristyn. “I enjoy seeing students learn and progress throughout the years! They gain so much confidence and knowledge as a result of youth programming like 4-H and FFA.”

Lancaster County 4-H thanks Kristyn for donating her time and talents. People like her are indeed the heart of 4-H!
