The National 4-H Council announced earlier this year that John King, of Owego, N.Y., was selected as the 2016 National 4-H Salute to Excellence Volunteer of the Year.  <\/p>\n

On Friday, Oct. 7, King was recognized for his accomplishment by the 4-H National Council at the 4-H Heritage Luncheon at the National 4-H Youth Conference Center in Chevy Chase, Md. A cash award of $1,000 was presented to the Tioga Co. 4-H Program in recognition of his award. <\/p>\n

Each year, the 4-H Salute to Excellence honors one individual in each of the four U.S. regions and from that from that group they select a national winner.  <\/p>\n

\u201cThe success of our 4-H Program is due to wonderful leaders like John. We appreciate all that he has done. We are elated for him and our local program, as well as our great state-wide 4-H Program.\u201d stated Andy Fagan, director of Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tioga County. <\/p>\n

\u201cJohn is an inspiration to 4-H youth. His work is a constant reminder that the life-changing 4-H experience would be impossible without caring adult mentors like him,\u201d said Jennifer Sirangelo, president & CEO, National 4-H Council.<\/p>\n

King has been a shooting sports instructor for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tioga County\u2019s (CCE Tioga) 4-H Program for over eight years and was nominated by Jody Tatich, the 4-H program manager, with input from youth and parents for his dedication to the 4-H youth development program. <\/p>\n

This award recognizes 4-H volunteers who demonstrate exemplary service to 4-H, while promoting service through volunteerism as both an opportunity and a privilege.<\/p>\n
