Chas goes above and beyond as an operations manager and arena director at the Lancaster Event Center to help set up for 4-H events held at the facility. There are four full days of 4-H events at the Lancaster County Super Fair and 4-H events throughout the year, such as clinics and shows.

Extension Associate Cole Meador says, “Chas is always there to help with logistics and make the events run smoothly.”

Chas says, “My favorite experience helping with 4-H is watching the kids receive their awards. It just shows them that hard work pays off and it is cool to see their emotions when they walk out of the ring. I have seen kids burst into tears when they get congratulatory hugs from their parents.”
