Yesterday Abby celebrated her 10-year anniversary with CCE as our 4-H educator 🍀. See why the 4-H kids and families have loved having her over the past ten years! ❤️

Abby is always willing to help and does so with a smile on her face, even when you can tell she may not want to ;) She stepped up for the horse program in a big way last year when the horse program educator needed time off and then when she eventually left. It’s a lot for one person to take on alllll the species and she was great about it! We love Abby and appreciate all she does for the horse program and 4H in general!

-Frank Family

Congrats Abby on 10 years!! The Smith family loves you!! ❤️❤️

I spent almost 3 weeks trying to find a good time to stop in and pick up a cheese order that came in late. Something kept coming up on our end whenever we made a plan with Abby. She took it upon herself to bring the cheese to presentation day without us asking, knowing she would see us there. The thoughtfulness for one cheese delivery during her very busy schedule, organizing all the presentations, is just one of the many reasons Abby is a rockstar 4-H educator!

The Kent Family - Variety Pack

These are just a few of the reasons we all love Abby and her amazing contributions to the kids and the 4-H program. Thank you for all you do! 🍀❤️
