Though Lori Shule of Iroquois County was not a 4-H member herself, she has been active in her county for numerous years. Lori was leader of the Ashkum Barnbusters 4-H Club for over twenty years and was even one of the founding leaders of this club. Though her children had aged out of the program, she saw the value in the 4-H program and continued to serve as leader. She also helped out at the county level by participating in project tear down at the fair and helping with awards evaluation.
