A National Guard Battalion from East Texas along with their families enjoyed a Christmas dinner at Harvey Convention Center in Tyler on Sunday, December 7. These troops are scheduled to deploy within the next six months to fight the global war on terrorism. Four Henderson County 4-H Ambassadors help serve Christmas dinner to the over 300 in attendance. The Henderson County 4-H Ambassadors are the youth spokespersons for Texas 4-H in Henderson County. Each year outstanding 4-H teens who demonstrate excellence in 4-H achievement, citizenship, and leadership earn invitations to become 4-H Ambassadors. Being a 4-H Ambassador is both an honor and a responsibility. Ambassadors serve as speakers, emcees, program facilitators, hosts or hostesses, committee members, and in many other youth leadership roles for 4-H and Texas AgriLife Extension programs and events. Henderson County 4-H Ambassadors are also tremendous role models who maintain the highest standards of excellence as they fulfill their 4-H pledge commitments of clear thinking, great loyalty, large service, and better living to make the best better in their clubs, communities, country, and world. Henderson County 4-H is sponsored by the United Wayof Henderson County and Texas AgriLife Extension Service.
