be a better person for my club, community, country and world. I’m so thankful for all the opportunities I’ve been given through 4-H and the countless memories. I hope to encourage younger children to join and get involved in 4-H.

During her 10 year career, Carrington Kohout participated in 56 community activities and helped with countless junior 4-H meetings often presenting helpful information to countless children. Her favorite activity would be teaching basic Choctaw words to the junior 4-H group and helping with Santa’s Workshop each year.

What aspect of 4-H has had the biggest influence on your life?

I’m not a country girl and I didn’t grow up on a farm, although I think showing livestock is great. I have loved that 4-H offers so many other things for city kids besides livestock showing and judging. I was able to participate in cooking contest, fashion contest, talent shows and speech contest.
