Award
A third-generation 4-Her, Kelli Hand grew up in the Delong Livestock 4-H Club, where a child care project inspired her 25-year career running an in-home daycare. Today, she gives back as a Cloverbud leader, sheep and goat show superintendent, and member of the Knox County 4-H Extension and Foundation. She’s also the founder of the Knox County Alumni Show and the unofficial “picture lady” at livestock shows—capturing not just memories, but the deep friendships that have defined her lifelong 4-H journey.
