Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Glenda Willnerd of Unadilla as winner of the June “Heart of 4-H Award” in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.
Glenda has been co-superintendent of the 4-H Photography area at the Lancaster County Super Fair since 2014. Previously, she was a parent volunteer with the Flying Hoofs 4-H horse club for about nine years and coached hippology for two years. Glenda has also volunteered with 4-H in Otoe and Thurston counties, and judged 4-H exhibits (including clothing, Style Revue and food) at several county fairs. In total, she has served as a 4-H volunteer for 43 years!
“I love being a 4-H volunteer because it gives me an opportunity to meet and learn from others,” Glenda says. “I enjoy interacting with the 4-H members and love to see the new ideas they come up with each year at the fair. My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer is to observe 4-H member’s growth over the years in a project such as photography. One of our former 4-H members has become a judge in the area of photography and has served as a great role model for other members.”
Lancaster County 4-H thanks Glenda for donating her time and talents. People like her are indeed the heart of 4-H!
