“There are many great rewards as a 4-H volunteer, but one of the best things is seeing the kids reach their goals and then later on, becoming 4-H volunteers themselves.”

Tiffany has been a 4-H volunteer for 20 years, leading the largest 4-H community club in Mecosta County with over 70 youth members, known as the Stanwood Pioneers 4-H Club.

Aside from being a club leader, Tiffany is involved in the Junior Livestock Association, Horse Leaders Association and Mecosta County 4-H Council. Through those groups, she holds officer roles and is actively involved in the county program, which influences and benefits the lives of all Mecosta County 4-H members.

Community service is a big focus of the Stanwood Pioneers 4-H Club. The club participates in many service projects that contribute to the quality of life in the community. Through these projects, the club stays active and involved during all seasons, and helps youth to learn the importance of giving back and advancing their citizenship.
