Michelle has been a 4-H volunteer for 30 years. She is currently 4-H Photography Superintendent at the Lancaster County Super Fair, a parent volunteer with the South Prairie Wranglers 4-H rabbit club and instructor at Clover College. Previously, she volunteered with the horse program for 20 years as a hippology and judging coach, member of Horse VIPS committee and horse judge.

“4-H has been in my family for four generations,” she says. “4-H provides an opportunity for youth to gain leadership experience, citizenship and community service. Participation in 4-H allows youth to develop lifetime skills and played a vital part in my decision to major in Animal Science in the College of Agriculture of Natural Resources at University of Nebraska-Lincoln and compete on the UNL horse judging team. My favorite experience as a 4-H volunteer has been as the Photography Superintendent. I have enjoyed working with the 4-H youth, Extension staff and judges. It’s been a joy to watch youth develop their photography skills, creativity and confidence.”
