Today we mourn the loss of an American icon, a beloved philanthropist and a proud 4-H alumna, Dolly Parton. Her extraordinary life was defined not only by her incredible talent, but by her unwavering generosity, compassion and commitment to helping others.

For generations of young people, Dolly embodied what it means to use your gifts in service of others. From her roots in 4-H to her lifelong investment in literacy, education and community, she showed us that true leadership is grounded in humility, kindness, and purpose. As Dolly once said, "storms make trees take deeper roots." 💚

A proud 4-H alumna, she reminded us that challenges can strengthen us and help us grow. That wisdom will continue to inspire young people and communities for generations to come. We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and the millions whose lives she touched. Her legacy of hope, generosity, and service will live on. 🍀

A big "Congrats" and "Goodbye" to Arianna Buehring. Arianna was an Americorps 4-H Service Member during the school year and an amazing 4-H summer assistant these last 3 summers. She graduated from college this spring and will be teaching 3rd grade at Menominee Elementary!

Before she left, she put together a list for creating a sensory kit for each 4-H community club in our county. We have ordered all the supplies and will be passing these out at the All County 4-H meeting on August 25th, 7PM at JPCC.

We will miss Arianna, but I am sure she will come back to volunteer once in a while (wink wink) 😉😉 If you see her, congratulate her!
