RON KOCHER
Ron Kocher, 18, Bloom

one of six national winners in
the 4-H woodworking
program.
Even before he joined 4-H,
Kocher liked to make things,
beginning with a rough piece
of wood, and shaping it into a
usable object. Having
acquired the skills of using
hand and power tools, the
seven-year 4-H’er chose to
make a two-story martin
house as his first project in 4-
H.
Within a few years he
became accomplished at
cabinet making. Fashioning
first, a floor to ceiling corner
cupboard with glass door, his
second endeavor, a Father’s
Day present, was a two-door
gun cabinet with enclosed
shelving below.
When an addition was put
on the family home, many of
his skills were employed in
construction. His 4-H han
dyman group erected a fence
around a flower garden at
the community fire hall, and
as an additional community
project, the club members
tend the garden.
For the past two years,
Kocher has served as teen
leader for the handyman
project, as well as serving as
project leader for an arts
and crafts club.
