Future leaders

Author: Steven Austin

Planning Unit: Animal and Food Sciences

Major Program: Agriculture 4-H Core Curriculum

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

Over the past five years of working for the University of Kentucky it has been a privilege to work with an elite group of young people. Individuals that pursue their dreams of being involved in 4-H and especially 4-H Livestock programs, work hard to become members of the traveling 8 better known as Silver and Gold teams.  I have now been here long enough to see the individuals who have been apart of these teams giving back to their communities.  We are helping to build future leaders.
