Jeanette Martin Klostermeyer began her involvement in 4-H as a member of her mother's 4-H club in Gretna, NE. From 1953 to 1967, she organized andled four different 4-H clubs in the Prosser area--the Busy Bachelors, Busy Hands, Junior Cutups, and Junior Homemakers. She even developed some of her own projects to use in these clubs.
Jeanette Held offices in the Benton County Leaders' Council, and the District and State Leaders' Council. She was State 4-H Fair Board President in 1967-68. She was a host mother to an IFYE from Peru and chaired the State IFYE Advisor Committee in 1966. One of her club members was an IFYE to Germany. Jeanette organized workshops and contests, and served as a clothing judge at Benton-Franklin County Fair and other fairs, including the State 4-H Fair. She received the Gold Clover Award and was elected to the National 4-H Honorary, Mu Beta Beta, in 1963.
Six of Jeanette's club members were delegates to the National 4-H Congress and received scholarships. Her three grandsons were in 4-H and one received a National 4-H scholarship. Some of her club members became adult 4-H leaders. Her daughter, Mary Jean Craig, is employed as an Extension Associate in the Idaho State 4-H Office. In addition to 4-H, Jeanette was involved in Extension Homemakers activities. A club she organized for that program is still in existence. Jeanette died in 1985.
