Terry Floyd Jr. joined 4-H in his youth and lived by the values of the 4-H program. In college he set his goals and landed his dream job as a 4-H extension agent. He developed many statewide materials, and his “Design the Future” youth conference set the precedent for multi-generational problem solving. He fostered youth team building skills, developed the Orange County and state 4-H ambassador programs, mentored other extension agents, and directly impacted the growth of Orange County’s dairy, livestock and equestrian clubs. His  innovative volunteer techniques won three Walt Disney World Community Service Awards. Floyd impacted thousands of children with his innovative thinking and programs designed to get everyone involved. Under his guidance a 4-H member won the National Race Car Circuit and the “4-H Chevy Love Truck” was featured twice a week on the nationwide “Truckin’ USA” television program. Floyd constantly kept a good image in the local media, and he had a way of talking to every young person and making him or her feel special. A true testament to his impact is the number of program members who return to serve as volunteers, leaders, mentors and agents for 4-H youth. Floyd was a member of the 4-H Program Development Committee, the State 4-H Congress Steering Committee, Coordinator for District VI Events, and he served as an instructor at Venture Elementary School for the Orange County “Teach-In.”  He recognized great power in the words “Thank you,” and he empowered youth to set high standards and surpass everyone’s expectations.
