January 2008 Heart of 4-H Award Winner
Amber Nore
Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Amber Nore as winner of January's "Heart of 4-H Award" in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.
Amber has been a 4-H volunteer for three years. She began as an independent leader for her daughter, Chloe. Two years ago, as the leader for the Everett After School program sponsored by the Everett Community Learning Center and Lincoln Parks & Recreation, Amber formed a 4-H club for the after school youth. "Everett 4-H Kids" meet every week and completes 4-H projects such as Trash to Treasure, Snack & Healthy and Theatre Arts. Amber is also the leader for the McPhee After School program and is in the process of forming a 4-H club there.
"I like being a 4-H volunteer because I get to spend time with my daughter, Chloe, and help her and her friends learn about all the fascinating things that can be done with 4-H," says Amber. "My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer was getting ready for our first county fair entries!"
In addition to volunteering for 4-H, Amber volunteers in her daughter's classroom which is part of Everett's Montessori program and is active in Everett Elementary School's PTA. She also teaches Sunday school at her church and volunteers for several women's organizations. She is an AmericaCorps member serving at the Eiseley Branch Library.
Congratulations to Amber. Volunteers like her are indeed the heart of 4-H!
