Jackie Detillion In Appreciation
of 2022 Friend of 4-H
Although not a born and raised Ross Countian, the 2022 Friend of 4-H award goes to 32-year project advisor of Clever Clovers 4-H club Jackie Detillion. Having been raised an “army brat”, she and her family eventually planted roots in Ross County where she first developed her love of 4-H. From Jr. High on she loved riding and showing horses in our program. After starting her family, she continued the tradition of bleeding green by choosing to raise her three girls in our program, continuing now with her grandchildren. She’s known in her club for her encouragement of all youth, her fun-loving spirit, and truly embracing loving her club, community, and world. Specifically, Jackie is looked to for her willingness to answer questions, seek answers, and connect individuals to resources. She’s in charge of leading fundraisers and helps with the booth each year. As is true with all her efforts, she brings fresh creativity and positivity each year.

Over the course of her years as a club advisor, Jackie has completed two terms on the 4-H Advisory Committee, serving as President for several years. She currently serving again for a third term… her dedication is hard to match! During her time on the committee, she has sparked and helped execute many great changes in Ross County 4-H over the years to make the best better including assisting with developing the dress code policy and co-chairing the Ross County 4-H Halloween Camp Out. For the past 15 years, Jackie has been one of the masterminds behind of some of the best memories made in our program each year at the annual Halloween Campout. Serving as a co-chair, she selflessly spends hours planning and organizing the event from tiny details to heavy asks, she makes it happen! It’s an event our 4-H community knows and loves—it even won an award for Ohio 4-H for the event. She donated scholarship money from this event, totaling over $16,000.
Beyond these extraordinary roles she has voluntarily taken on, Jackie can always be found in the stands supporting not only her own family members or club members but countless young people she has taken in under her wing in the last few decades. Even with perfect strangers, she goes out of her way to give a pat on the back or congratulations. We proudly congratulate Jackie Detillion as the 2022 Friend of 4-H.
Congratulations and many thanks to Jackie Detillion
