Heart of 4-H Award Winner

Kitt Saathoff

Lancaster County 4-H is proud to announce Kitt Saathoff as winner of April’s “Heart of 4-H Award” in recognition of outstanding volunteer service.

Kitt has been a 4-H volunteer for 6 years and is organizational leader of two 4-H clubs, The American Gals and Crazy Clovers. Members in both clubs complete a wide variety of projects, including clothing, food, celebrate art and photography. She has also been an instructor at Clover College for several years.

“I have enjoyed being a leader and watching my daughters and their friends having fun doing the things I remember enjoying as a 4-H’er,” says Kitt. “I enjoy spending time with kids. 4-H provides activities for my daughters and I to enjoy together. Most of the activities I enjoy as an adult, I learned from 4-H.”

A Lancaster County 4-H alumnus, Kitt was a 4-H Ambassador and camp counselor. Her mother, Linda Dempsey, was leader of Kitt’s club. Linda still volunteers for 4-H, assisting with Kitt’s 4-H clubs and Clover College classes.

Kitt is owner of A Page In Time scrapbooking store. Kitt also volunteers at their church and their daughters’ schools.

Congratulations to Kitt! Volunteers like her are indeed the heart of 4-H!
