A 4-H volunteer for six years, Jill is one of four superintendents in the 4-H Clothing areas at the Lancaster County Super Fair and helps teach at 4-H sewing workshops. She also helps the Super Shamrocks 4-H club with their sewing projects, their club booth at Kiwanis Karnival, and staffing a shift at the 4-H food booth during the Super Fair.
“I enjoy working with youth, helping them learn new skills and seeing their achievements at the county fair,” says Jill. “These are life skills our youth gain in 4-H that benefit them for their future. I get a sense of pride in seeing youth gain sewing skills, their creativeness and how they progress over the years. All the experiences, skills and friendships gained from 4-H are lifetime treasures. I highly recommend 4-H. It’s never too late to join!”
