Teresa Myers is 2017 Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame inductee for Allamakee County

The Allamakee County 4-H Youth Development Committee is proud to recognize Teresa Myers of Waukon as the 2017 Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame inductee from Allamakee County. Myers has been a long-time supporter of the Allamakee County 4-H Program. Pictured at right during the 4-H Hall of Fame Award ceremony are, left to right, Teresa Myers, Iowa 4-H Foundation Executive Director Emily Saveraid and Iowa 4-H Volunteer Development Specialist Tillie Good. Myers' 4-H involvement has spanned many years - from her early start as a 4-H member in Buchanan County, to her many years as a 4-H Club leader for the Clover Chasers, a 4-H parent, a member of the Youth Development Committee and serving as an advisor for the County Council. Even though her children have grown and graduated from the 4-H program, she is still willing to share her 4-H enthusiasm by helping with the Allamakee County Fair Board and participates in the beef shared project. This year’s 4-H Hall of Fame inductee continues to touch many lives through her support of the Allamakee County 4-H program. Local leaders say Myers is a great asset to the Allamakee County 4-H Program and her service to the 4-H program emphasizes the mission of the 4-H Hall of Fame.
