4-H leaders recently honored
More than 100 4-H members, volunteers and other distinguished guests
recently gathered for the annual Tuscola County 4-H Awards and
Recognition Banquet.
The event honors participants and supporters for their dedication and serv-
ice to the Tuscola County 4-H Program. 4-H depends on the support of vol-
unteers and local businesses. Each year Tuscola County 4-H chooses long
time 4-H supporters to honor at the banquet.
The Outstanding 4-H Family Award is given to a 4-H family who has gone
above and beyond what is expected of them. They may volunteer their time
and or resources, promote 4-H, share their skills, encourage youth to learn,
or other accomplishments. Tom and Alice Jaruzel were recognized for their
outstanding efforts. They have contributed countless volunteer hours to
making 4-H events run smoothly. The whole family has made fundraising
efforts successful and events fun for all.
The 4-H Alumni Award is given each year to 4-H volunteers who contribute
to the 4-H program through their support of 4-H and in turn help Tuscola
County 4-H grow and prosper. Nancy Ruggles is the recipient of this year’s
4H Alumni Award. She is no stranger to 4-H. Through her children and now
through her grandchildren, Ruggles has been a dedicated 4-H alumni and
remains a steadfast 4-H supporter.
The Friend of 4-H Award is presented to an individual or business who is
an outstanding Tuscola County 4-H supporter. This year’s award was pre-
sented to Tractor Supply Company for its continued support of the 4-H pro-
gram. TSC has gone above and beyond with its paper clover campaign,
which directly supports the youth of Tuscola County. TSC continues to be
the top seller in the state and are in the top 10 sellers of the paper clover for
