Louisiana 4-H Hall of Fame Inductee: Since 2008, Louisiana 4-H has been honoring people whose dedication to youth development helped make our program what it is today! During our centennial anniversary in 2008, 100 honorees were inducted into the Louisiana 4-H Hall of Fame. Among these were St. Martin Parish’s own Conrad Gauthier and Charles A. Fuselier. Each year since, no more than 12 new honorees are added. This year, Ms. Elsie Castille was selected to receive this great honor. Ms. Elsie Castille has been involved with the St. Martin Parish 4-H program from over 70 years. Ms. Elsie’s love of 4-H began many years ago when she became an active 4-H member. Her love of 4-H continues today as an avid supporter and volunteer for the parish’s 4-H program. For over 55 years, Ms. Elsie has impacted the lives of numerous 4-H youth by accumulating countless volunteer hours at various 4-H activities and events. Ms. Elsie also serves the youth by being an advisory committee member and as the President of the St. Martin Parish 4-H Foundation. Because of Ms. Elsie’s involvement in the parish’s 4-H program, many others have followed her lead and began volunteering also. We are fortunate to have adults such as Ms. Elsie who believe in the power of youth! Conrad Gauthier Scholarships: Several senior 4-H members received scholarships during this event.
