Love What You Do and Do What You Love
Have I mentioned lately how much I love my job? I enjoy the unique challenges that each day presents. Some weeks, however, are a tad rougher than others. And sometimes, I just need a break. We all need that. This past weekend, I enjoyed a “break” with members of our UTK Collegiate 4-H/FFA club, a group I have advised since 2008.

New! Tennessee 4-H Volunteer Resources for 4-H Professionals Team Site
What keeps volunteers motivated? Is it tangible or intangible rewards? T-shirts, caps, coffee mugs, puppy sweaters, double fudge brownies, or even the occasional Chinese buffet can all play a part at keeping volunteers happy.
But research shows that it is the intangible rewards that keep volunteers motivated. Programming efforts need to also focus on these intangibles.
