☀️ Please help us welcome our Purdue Extension Hancock County Summer Interns, Kynsey Hasty and Addison Buckley! ☀️

While they may already be familiar faces around Hancock County 4-H and the fairgrounds, we are excited to officially have them serving as our summer interns this year! Throughout the next few months, they will be helping with youth programs, community events, 4-H activities, and fair preparation.🍀

If you see Kynsey or Addison out at programs, workshops, and around the fairgrounds this summer, be sure to say hello and give them a warm Hancock County welcome! We are looking forward to a fun and impactful summer with these two. 💛🖤
