In April, the Sawyer family, from Currituck County was honored with the 4-H Family Legacy Award during a ceremony for 4-H Alumni award winners at the McKimmon Center at North Carolina State University. The award is given to multigenerational families who have made a lasting and significant impact on the North Carolina 4-H community.

Four generations of Sawyer youth have participated in the 4-H program – 26 members in total, amassing 91 years of service. The family understands and believes in the life skills that the 4-H organization provides and desires that it be preserved for future generations. This conviction led them to establish the William E. Sawyer memorial scholarship fund in memory of the first of 5 Sawyers to be inducted into the NC 4-H Honor Club. The Sawyer family also produced two highly successful 4-H Agents turned County Extension Directors. The Sawyer family blood truly runs green to Make the Best Better. Family members in attendance to receive the award included: Rodney and Wayne Sawyer, Chandler Sawyer, Eric and Cameron Lowe, and Ashton Lowe.
