Wanda Williams is in her 52nd year as a 4-H leader of the Monterey 4-Hers. She has served on various 4-H committees over the years, taught workshops, and helped at 4-H events.  When local funding for 4-H was in jeopardy, Wanda went before the County Board and spoke about 4-H.  This led her to later run for a seat on the County Board, and go on to serve as its Chairman.  Wanda's family has been involved with 4-H for a very long time, and Fulton County is fortunate to have her.  In recent years, Wanda has helped more behind the scenes, and her daughter, Jody, has assumed key leader responsibilities of their club.
