Although 4-H appears to be one of the best kept secrets, two 10-year 4-H members who discovered 4-H received much from and gave much to the 4-H program.

For what they gave to our 4-H program, Anne McLane and Tyler Bouse have been awarded the national I Dare You Leadership Award. The award recognizes youth for personal integrity, balanced living and motivation for leadership. The honor was presented to McLane and Bouse at the Kosciusko County 4-H Achievement Night.
