This past week, our Sevier County Extension team had the opportunity to attend the New Employee Conference in Knoxville!

Our Horticulture Agent, Cat Lawson, 4-H Agent Danielle Rinker, and 4-H Program Assistant KJ Rule participated in a variety of sessions focused on strengthening their skills and knowledge to better serve our community. Topics included time management, crisis communication, work-life balance, leading effective meetings, and working with volunteers.

They also had the chance to tour the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine and the beautiful University of Tennessee Gardens! 🌿🐾

We’re excited to bring back new ideas, tools, and energy to continue growing and improving our programs here in Sevier County! 💚🍀
