A 4-H volunteer for four years, Ben helps the Happy Go Lucky 4-H club with group projects and meetings. He assists with the Youth Livestock Premium Auction at the Lancaster County Super Fair and has helped organize 4-H/FFA Beef Weigh-In days.
"I like to help encourage youth as they get the 4-H experience," Ben says. "My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer is watching the kids grow and change as they develop into adults, and seeing how they learn life skills."
