Today we mourn the loss of an American icon, a beloved philanthropist and a proud 4-H alumna, Dolly Parton. Her extraordinary life was defined not only by her incredible talent, but by her unwavering generosity, compassion and commitment to helping others.

For generations of young people, Dolly embodied what it means to use your gifts in service of others. From her roots in 4-H to her lifelong investment in literacy, education and community, she showed us that true leadership is grounded in humility, kindness, and purpose. As Dolly once said, "storms make trees take deeper roots." 💚

A proud 4-H alumna, she reminded us that challenges can strengthen us and help us grow. That wisdom will continue to inspire young people and communities for generations to come. We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and the millions whose lives she touched. Her legacy of hope, generosity, and service will live on. 🍀

We wrapped our Summer 4-H Camps last week, ending with our 3 day Etiquette Camp that was presented to both young ladies and young gentlemen.

Mississippi county Extension Agents Kamella Neeley, 4-H Agent, and Jane Hermerding Family & Consumer Science Agent, presented Etiquette topics in basic manners, but also hands on practice in setting the table, dining manners, Invitation, RSVP and Thank You note writing and Presentations.
Additionally, young men had special lessons in gentlemen manners with Mr. Darrel Carr from ANC while the young ladies had lessons from Miss Kamella and Miss Jane.
Their 3 day camp ended with a special tea reception where the students brought their invited guests, got to dress up, showcase their new skills and present their favorite thing they learned in Etiquette Camp.

Thank you to ANC Community Education for their partnership in this fantastic camp and to Big River Steel for their support and sponsorship of this camp!
