We are honored to wrap up Volunteer Appreciation Week by recognizing a special Georgia 4-H volunteer: Clint Folsom has just been named the Southern Region Volunteer of the Year! Clint is a Cook County volunteer and is an integral part of the SAFE program there. As a certified BB coach, he mentors hundreds of youth in safety, discipline, and teamwork. He has raised over $10,000 in travel funds for 4-H’ers to attend national competitions and he serves as a member of the Cook County 4-H Program Development Team. Clint was recognized at the State 4-H BB Match, and we are so thankful for his contributions to Cook County and Georgia 4-H!
