"In the winter of 2023, Licking County 4-H member Kinsey Duzan was searching for a way to give back to the 4-H community that has given so much to her over the years. With the holidays quickly approaching and the feeling of festive cheer in the air, Duzan and her mom noticed the demand for Christmas trees and decorations, sparking the idea to host a Christmas Tree Fundraiser in support of the Licking County 4-H program.“
"4-H has opened so many doors for me over the years, and I’m excited that this money will be used to help future 4-H’ers have the same experiences I’ve had,” said Duzan. “Without 4-H, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to attend National 4-H Congress or develop important leadership and public speaking skills and would never have met half the friends I have today.”

"Carter Morrison woke up Sunday with one thing on his mind — he was going to get in the ring at the Hartford Fair and show a goat.
When the big moment arrived, he confidently led his new hoofed friend, Zamboni, around the B. Carr Pavilion with his 4-H mentor, Kinsey Duzan, by his side.
His mom, Cara Morrison, was delighted by his huge smile as he accepted his prize, an exhibitor banner they are planning to hang in his room.
“He couldn’t get here fast enough, he told everyone at church today he was showing a goat,” she said. “We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
