The Ambassador Beat: Brooke Thompson

The 4-H Ontario Ambassador program provides youth with advanced level training in leadership, citizenship, communications and public relations. Ambassadors put their energy and 4-H experiences to work recruiting new members and sharing the 4-H story. Throughout 2014, each of 4-H Ontario’s six Ambassadors will submit blog entries about their experiences in the program. The 4-H Ontario Ambassador program is proudly sponsored by GROWMARK, Inc. and UPI Energy LP. For more info on the Ambassador program click here.

Submitted by Brooke Thompson, 4-H Ontario Ambassador, York 4-H Association  My name is Brooke Thompson, and I am from York County. I have been a 4-H member for eight life-changing years. I have only been a 4-H Ambassador for a couple months now and I am having a blast! I have already had the opportunity to attend the following events:

At all my events I am overwhelmed by how enthusiastic and encouraging everyone is. Every event has taught me new skills and techniques that I am sure to use throughout my entire life. Being an ambassador has allowed me to share my passion for 4-H with many people and I can only hope that it has been contagious. Leadership and facilitation skills are a huge asset to my life that 4-H has been able to engrain into my personality. I am looking forward to the rest of my year as an ambassador and I hope to be able to meet many more amazing people!
