ACHIEVEMENT NIGHT PROGRAM – 2010

“Community Spirit”

4-H ALUMNI

The 4-H Alumni Award is designed to recognize past 4-H

members who have returned to the program as a volunteer leader

to share the knowledge and experiences they received in the

program. This years’ recipient is Angelina Gonzalez, of the

Sherwood Forest 4-H Club.

FRIEND OF 4-H

The Friend of 4-H Award is given in recognition of support for the

youth and projects of the Solano County 4-H Youth Development

Program. This year’s recipient is characterized by a commitment

to patients, a dedication to excellent science, and a respect for

everyone’s individuality. This recipient has been making history

since its founding in 1976 with its work in biotechnology. Since

that time—over 34 years—many new pharmaceuticals have been

created and approved by the FDA for use in improving the health

and well being of people. This recipient calls Vacaville home and

its name is Genentech.

Why do we recognize Genentech as this year’s Friend? Because

they were at the forefront of supporting our new science initiative,

SET—which stands for SCIENCE-ENGINEERING AND

TECHNOLOGY. Genentech personnel volunteered to work along

side our new SET Teens at the opening event of the program at the

Vacaville Library last June. They encouraged our youth and

provided an opportunity to learn about the work of Genentech. So

in appreciation for their support we would like to recognize

Genentech as this year’s Friend of Solano County 4-H.

LEADER OF THE YEAR

The Leader of the Year Award honors a leader who exemplifies

what a good 4-H Leader is. The recipient will have his or her

name engraved on a perpetual plaque that is on display at the

UCCE office.

The Leader of the Year Award honors a 4-H leader who

exemplifies the qualities expected of an outstanding leader.

Those individuals who draw out the best in 4-H members through

their patience, project preparedness and dependability as well as

their capacity to engage older youth who serve as Jr. or Teen

Leaders—providing them a youth/adult relationship experience

built on equity and trust. This year’s recipient is highly regarded

for her teaching skills and has a thriving sheep project. She has

been a leader for 6 years and is very deserving of this award.

Please join me in recognizing Jill Simmons of Dixon Ridge 4-H

Club as Leader of the Year.

SET RECOGNITION

The 4-H Science, Engineering, and Technology (SET) initiative for

youth brings science education to elementary school children

through trained teen educators, using curriculum developed by the

University of California.

We would like to honor the SET Teen TEAM members for their

active participation and leadership over the Summer of 2010 in the

Solano County 4-H SET Program, delivering science education to

children in Solano County.

CLUB CHARTER SEALS

Each year 4-H clubs are required to submit a club program

planning guide, which they plan to achieve throughout the year.

These goals are kept on file, and at the end of the year the club

evaluates the goals they set for themselves and what they were able

to achieve. These year-end results are submitted and reviewed by

the Incentive & Recognition Committee. The club is then scored

points for the number of goals, which they were able to complete

and are awarded seals of achievement.

This year we had five clubs in Solano County complete a 4-H plan

and submit required records by the county due date. Receiving

gold seals are the Sherwood Forest, Suisun Valley, Tremont, Vaca

Valley, and Westwind 4-H Clubs.

ALAN HAMEL CITIZENSHIP AWARD:

Citizenship is an important part of 4-H. This award is presented annually in memory of

Alan Hamel, a Dixon 4-H’er who died of Leukemia. Alan was a 4-H’er in the mid 50’s

and was selected an All Star in 1956. In order to receive this award, the member must

submit an original essay on what citizenship means to them.

This year’s winner has the following to say about citizenship…

The dictionary defines “citizenship” as “The position of being a citizen of a

country with all the rights, duties, and privileges that come with it.”

As an American I should be aware of, and fight for, my rights. One right I have is

freedom of speech and press. 4-H gives us opportunities to write news articles, and to

organize speeches based on what we believe. Another right is freedom of religion.

Through 4-H, we learn to accept and appreciate all people. You also have the right to

band together with others to petition for change. For instance, Solano County 4-H

lobbied to keep UCCE in the Solano County Budget.

Americans also have duties. You have the duty to care for your planet, help and

respect others, and perform community service based on your community’s needs. In

Solano County I began “Operation 4-HEROES”, based on a need for recognition of those

who serve our country. In doing service projects, I notice the butterfly effect. I not only

help someone directly, but have a positive affect on the people surrounding that

someone and myself. You have the duty to vote. You can ready yourself to vote by

learning about political issues, and practicing during Club Officer Elections.

Being an American is a privilege. It is important for citizens to use their rights to

change what they think is wrong and to follow through on their duties. 4-H teaches us

about our rights and duties, and how to become better citizens.

The recipient of the 2010 Alan Hamel Citizenship Award, Colleen Bohannan, Westwind

4-H Club.

PRESENTATION PROFICIENCY AWARD: This award is presented to 4-H members who give a presentation to five

different audiences in addition to entering their presentation at County

Presentation Day. The presentation project is an excellent program that

speaking to groups. It is also a requirement for the star ranks. This year’s

award winners are:

Elmira Caitlin Miller Roving Clovers Anna Moore Sherwood Forest Julianna Payne Suisun Valley Jessie Bast Preston Clayland Duke Delorefice Drake Delorefice Aubree Ellison Caitlin Estes Christin Estes Juliet Gemmell Meredith Gemmell Jacob Hall Isaac Hall Tiffany Lum Matt Rowland Emma Vogliano Anthony Vogliano Thomas Weisz Vaca Valley Isabella Berkheimer Elizabeth Bowen Lauren Bowen Kristin Clark-Webb Samantha DeOsuna Bryanna DeTomasi Hannah DeTomasi

LYNNE BURNS MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP

Lynne Burns was the long time 4-H Club Program Representative

for Solano County in the mid 1980’s and early 1990’s. Lynne

developed cancer and after a long, hard fight she succumbed to the

disease. In honor of her memory Solano County 4-H Leaders

Council developed a scholarship in her name. This is the Tenth

year this scholarship has been offered to high school seniors.

Candidates must submit a completed application, their high school

transcripts with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 and are

interviewed by a selection committee. This year there were four

recipients of the Lynne Burns Memorial 4-H Scholarship. Each

recipient was presented with a certificate at 4-H Senior

Recognition Night. We are very proud to have awarded four

scholarships. The recipients were Will Simmons, Dixon Ridge

4-H Club, Brady Baldwin, Molly Carlson & Jaime Picano,

INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGE RECOGNITION

4-H has been involved with international exchange programs since

1948. After World War II, the United States began many

exchange programs to create mutual understanding between people

of different cultures. This summer a Solano County 4-H member

participated in the outbound program and lived with a host family

in Costa Rica for several weeks. He was able to polish his Spanish

skills as his host family did not speak English. Tonight we

recognize Carson Wignall, Suisun Valley 4-H Club.

GOLDEN CLOVER

The Golden Clover Awards recognize outstanding achievement of

4-H Members, Volunteers, and Groups within the 4-H Youth

Development Program. 4-H members, volunteers, and groups may

be nominated or self-nominated in any applicable category.

Categories recognize 4-H work in multiple areas including

innovative ideas, outreach, fundraising, leadership, and lifetime

service. This year a Solano County 4-H member received this

prestigious award, William Simmons, Dixon Ridge 4-H Club,

for his contributions to Solano County Fair Ag Day.

LEADER YEAR AWARDS

There is no way to estimate the benefit boys and girls receive from

the volunteers in the 4-H program. As they grow into adults,

young people need models to imitate. Volunteers fill this need, as

well as contributing to young people in many other ways. Tonight

we give tenure awards to adult volunteers who have given so

selflessly of their time.
