Doug Hawn will be inducted into the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame at a ceremony next Sunday, Aug. 17, at the 4-H exhibit building on the State Fairgrounds.
Hawn has served as Greene County Fair board secretary for 32 years. A lifelong 4-H member, he spends hundreds of hours each year in both physical labor and administrative tasks to assure Greene County 4-H members have the best county fair experience possible.
The Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame was established in 2002 and is sponsored by the Iowa 4-H Foundation. Counties are allowed one nomination each year to submit names of volunteers, community leaders, and Extension staff members who have exemplified outstanding service and dedication to the 4-H youth program in their county.
