Heart of 4-H Award Winner - Carin Sandman!!

Congratulations to Carin - - She is the April 2009 Heart of 4-H Award Winner!! Here was her write-up from the Nebline Newsletter:

Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Carin Sandman as winner of April’s “Heart of 4-H Award” in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.
Carin has been a Lancaster County 4-H volunteer for five years and a Dodge County volunteer for 10 years. In Lancaster County, she is organizational leader of The Wild Green Clovers 4-H club and has volunteered at 4-H Clover College for three years. In Dodge County, she is project leader for the City Slickers 4-H club and attended 4-H camp with local youth. She has served on the state 4-H livestock Advisory Council as the southeast district volunteer and has volunteered at the statewide Unicameral Youth Conference.
“I like being a 4-H volunteer because you have the opportunity to see youth grow and succeed in each of their talents,” says Carin. “My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer was attending Unicameral Youth Conference and staying in Burr Hall. The 2003 UYC was a great experience when we went to the basement for a long night of storm warnings and restless youth. We all had a great time getting to know each other and built friendships that are still present.”
Congratulations to Carin. Volunteers like her are indeed the heart of 4-H!
