Cathy Eathington and her late husband, Gary, served as 4-H leaders of the Avondale 4-H Club in Fulton County for 40 years, retiring as leaders in 2006. Their four sons showed cattle and participated in other projects through their 4-H years. Cathy is still a huge supporter of 4-H in Fulton County, including watching her grandchildren show cattle and sheep, and helping them get all the places they need to be. Cathy sponsors a college scholarship in her husband's name to help out a 4-H member who has shown cattle and plans to further their education.
