ROCKWOOD, ONT. – 4-H Ontario is proud to announce the selection of four ambassadors who will represent 4-H Ontario across the province in 2022. The following four 4-H youth were selected to fulfill this prestigious role: Allison French (Peel 4-H Association), Ashley McClellan (Peel 4-H Association), Dougie Robinson (Stormont 4-H Association), Rhiannah Gallagher (Carleton 4-H Association). These 2022 4-H Ontario ambassadors commenced their year on March 26, 2022 at the Ambassador Luncheon in Richmond Hill, Ont.
“The 4-H Ontario Ambassadors are an integral part in the promotion of 4-H to current and future volunteers, youth participants and stakeholders. They showcase the values and opportunities 4-H provides across the province,” says Marianne Fallis, Senior Manager, Youth Experience, 4-H Ontario. “This year’s new team of Ambassadors will carry on the tradition of exceptional youth who are passionate about sharing the many experiences and opportunities the 4-H Ontario program has to offer.”
For more than 15 years, the 4-H Ontario Ambassador program has provided 4-H youth with training in leadership, citizenship, communications, and public relations. The 4-H Ontario ambassadors will use these skills to recruit new members and share the 4-H story. Ambassadors will attend 4-H Ontario events across the province and represent 4-H Ontario at community events to promote the 4-H program.
The 4-H Ontario Ambassador program is sponsored by GROWMARK, Inc. and the Ontario FS Co-operative System. Since the program’s inception in 2005, GROWMARK, Inc. and the Ontario FS Co-operative System have provided ambassadors with this experience through sponsorship of the program.
