NEWARK, Del. - Three
Delaware teenagers have been
chosen to attend a national 4-H
leadership conference October 10
to 13 at the National 4-H Center in
Chevy Chase, Md.
Attending the “Profiles for
Tomorrow” conference will be
Mike Moser of Camden, Michele
Momeau of Newark, and Luke
Hankins of Lewes. They will be
accompanied by Kent County 4-H
volunteer advisor Judy Ramsey.
To be selected for the con
ference, delegates must be eligible
to participate in 4-H programs for
a minimum of one year following
training. They are chosen on the
basis of outstanding leadership,
citizenship, active community
service and commitment to local
and State 4-H programs.
Moser, 16, has been a member of
4-H for nine years. As a counselor
at the state 4-H camp, he worked

home. He said, “The only thing I
get out of it is a little soup. I give
some to the guy who caught the
turtle.” He said he does make it at
home sometimes.
Making the soup seems ef
fortless for Payne and his friends.
They enjoy the company of those
who stop by their pick-up truck to
watch the process.
Payne says, “I like to cook. I
can. I bake.” He said he has over
200 quarts of canned goods at
home, but adds, “This year I didn’t
make chow chow.” He helped to
can when his wife was still living,
but continues it because he enjoys
it. He admits to having a “pretty
big garden” from which he har
vests a lot of produce. He lives on
17 acres close to the adoption
center.
Payne says he has always liked
to cook, and enjoys making pies,
especially pumpkin and lemon.
Though he is retired, he still works
as a bricklayer and carpenter.
“Cooking is a sideline,” he says
with his winning smile.
As the soup is served people drift
over to tell Payne how good it is.
One woman points out to the crowd
that Payne is the “best turtle soup
maker east of the Mississippi.”
Everyone laughs, but no one denies
it. The host, Frank Goodlander,
steps up and adds, “in the coun
try.”
Asked if you could make a meal
of the turtle soup, Payne says, “If

“It’s our first real step in letting
FFA’ers become involved in
marketing a Pennsylvania
product,” she said.
For years Pennsylvania’s FFA
chapters have been selling
thousands of' boxes of Florida
citrus for the holidays as a fun
draiser. Mary Jo would like to see
Florida FFA repay the favor by
buying Pennsylvania maple syrup
to sell in return.
This year, some Keystone FFA
chapters will offer the specially
marked jugs of maple syrup in
addition to their citrus. The effort
will be a two-way winner for FFA,
since the individual chapters will
reap the profits from their own
sales and the cancelmo company
will set aside some of its profits in
the sale for the FFA Foundation,

Mary Jo explained.
She sees Pennsylvania maple
syrup as only the beginning of a
successful marriage between FFA
fundraising and Pennsylvania
products. “Maple syrup is our first
step,” she notes. She is already
making plans to market Lebanon
bologna and Pennsylvania apples
in gift boxes.
“A great marketing strategy is
to teach FFA kids to sell a Penn
sylvania product,” she said. “I
think an effort needs to be made
from kindergarten on up about the
plight of the American farmer. ’ ’
And Mary Jo puts her words into
action every time she visits a
potential contributor or an FFA
chapter to encourage them to
promote Pennsylvania agriculture
through using and marketing
Keystone state ag products.
