Bill Erickson Outstanding Leader of the Year
We would also like to take a moment to recognize the Bill Erickson Outstanding Leader of the Year. This award is given by the Weld County 4-H Foundation and is in honor of Bill Erickson. Bill served as a volunteer leader in Weld County 4-H for over 65 years. During that time, Bill impacted the lives of thousands of youth by encouraging and teaching them life skills through positive youth development. His legacy as a diligent and dedicated volunteer with a passion for service to 4-H is what this award is all about. The recipient was recognized at the 4-H Recognition Night in October and will be receiving their plaque tonight. Congratulations Matt Carroll.
Matt is a dedicated leader through the Horse Program, going above and beyond to be sure that all youth feel welcomed. He helps with numerous workshops and events, encourages youth in all they do, and steps up to whatever needs to be done. Thank you, Matt, for your continued dedication to the 4-H program and congratulations again.
