Last but certainly not least, we are grateful to see our Virginia 4-H colleague posthumously recognized with a 25 Years of Service Award at the National Association of Extension 4-H Youth Development Professionals Conference in Kansas City this year.

We are still so grateful for her years of service and lasting contributions to 4-H. đź’š
