appreciate all the folks who come out to support our youth,” said Zoeller. “To a lot of them, this is the start of their college savings.” A private/public partnership, the KCYAEC was constructed with funding from Kendall County, citizen donations and in-kind services, and other private and public grant money. Junior Livestock director and KCYAEC board member, Marty Carroll, said, “Junior Livestock and 4-H Horse Club leaders and volunteers are grateful for our private benefactors as well as county support. We are honored to be entrusted with this project.” A supporter of the project, County Judge Darrel Lux said, “The new youth ag and equestrian center will foster economic development in Kendall County for years to come. It also gives families from all socioeconomic levels the opportunity to work together on
projects that instill responsibility and develop the character of our Kendall County youth.” According to 4-H Horse Club director and KCYAEC board member, Rick Wood, the new arena has hosted several youth rodeos and other equestrian events since the opening last April with more on the books this fall and next year. Both the Kendall County Junior Livestock Association and the Kendall County 4-H Horse Club are non-profit, 501(c) 3 organizations. The groups have no paid staff and operate solely with volunteers. KCYAEC is incorporated and in the process of filing for 501(c) 3 status. The 13-member board of directors includes five representatives from Junior Livestock, five from the 4-H Horse Club, and three members from the community. Directors include Andra Wisian, President; Krista Upham, Vice President; Meg Grier, Secretary; David Geistweidt, Treasurer; Wayne Zoeller; Marty Carroll; Weston Hamilton; Craig Jackson; Jack Speir; Rick Wood; Dwaine Rivers; Cliff Wheeler; and Mike Lang.
