Cape County 4-H Member Wins National Award

Tyler Lappe, Member of Arnsberg 4-H Club. Parents are Pamela and Tom Lappe of Oak Ridge, MO.

Tyler Lappe is a 9 year member of the Arnsberg 4-H Club. He is from Oak Ridge and has recently received a National 4-H award that has been previously won by only two other Missouri 4-H members. Tyler has been chosen to serve as one of the teen representative on the National 4-H Congress Planning committee. A 4-H member must first win the honor at the state level to attend the National 4-H Congress. Then after being a delegate to this event, a 4-H member can apply to be on the National Planning Committee for the next National Congress. Only two 4-H members from the state of Missouri have previously served on the National Congress Planning Committee. Tyler is currently busy planning the National 4-H Congress 2009 which will be held in Atlanta, GA in November. Congratulations on this outstanding accomplishment!!
