“I have volunteered through the years on the state and district level, but I must say that getting to help in various ways in my county has been a great experience. It is wonderful to watch these 4-H’ers gain confidence and succeed in their endeavors.
This after school activity (Cooking with Care) meets monthly during the school year. (It was started by a senior 4-H’er for her foods project several years ago.) Our 4-H agent, 4-H program assistant and our FACS agent, who are outstanding, along with several other great volunteers and senior 4-H’ers, plan topics to teach and menus for each time.” – Mary Mills
