Cecelia Campbell started the first 4-H club in Twisp, Washington, in 1952 and was a dynamic
4-H leader for 24 years.
Cecelia was a rancher an award winning cattle woman. Along with her husband, Orvan Campbell, they raised and showed champion, registered Hereford cattle. Their ranch on Beaver Creek became a training facility for the 4-H group to learn fitting, showing, and livestock husbandry. Cecelia coordinated efforts with Okanogan County Extension; together they offered the 4-H group the opportunity to weigh their stock, learn proper grooming, and fitting and showing techniques. The Campbell ranch was generously offered for numerous events to enable the 4-H members the chance to learn animal husbandry.
Cecelia’s interest in her 4-H members and her encouraging support had a strong and lasting effect on them. One of her early 4-H members attended the University of Washington to study science, became a professor of Marine Biology, and is currently the President of the American Science Foundation. Cecelia played guitar and led singing around the campfire in her early years. Later, one of her members began singing and playing guitar around the campfire; she became a lead singer in a very successful group.
At 85, Cecilia continues to paint, takes an active interest in the ranch’s cattle operation, and still lives on the Campbell Ranch in Twisp, Washington.
