Known around Hartselle as “the 4-H lady,” Betty Gottler dedicated 33 years to Alabama 4-H, 28 of those as the Morgan County 4-H agent, impacting an estimated 500,000 young people along the way.

Though she retired in 2012, her service continues. Gottler now supports 4-H as a board member of the Alabama 4-H Foundation, an advisor to the National 4-H Council, and archivist for the National Association of Extension 4-H Youth Development Professionals history committee.

Preserving 4-H’s story is one of her greatest passions, because her own story is deeply woven into the history of Alabama 4-H.

National 4-H Council, which exists to support national initiatives and local 4-H programs through fundraising, storytelling, and convenings, recently visited Auburn University’s campus to observe and collaborate with Alabama 4-H during its Midwinter Teen Leadership Retreat.

Jill Bramble, president and CEO of National 4-H Council, said, “I think Alabama 4-H is going to be a model for the rest of the country. Alabama shows it is possible for multiple land-grant universities to work across a state to reach all young people and meet them where they are.”

During the visit, the National 4-H Council presented a crystal clover to Auburn University President Christopher B. Roberts in appreciation for serving the nation’s youth. Auburn First Lady Tracy Roberts and 4-H Assistant Director Casey Mull, in turn, presented Bramble with American and 4-H flags, both flown overseas aboard a U.S. Air Force MQ-9 Reaper in recognition of National 4-H Council’s continued support of the 4-H Military Partnership.
