Union, Aurora, Brown, Faulk County Youth Earn Honors



South Dakota Farmers Union honored a group of devoted youth for their commitment to community, involvement and leadership development during the 2021 state convention held in Huron.

The Torchbearer Award is the highest achievement in the S.D. Farmers Union Education Program. To receive the award, a camper must complete five years of service. The award showcases the commitment campers have put toward education and the time they dedicated to serving rural communities. True to the name of the award, continuing the traditions of the S.D. Farmers Union educational programming is often a priority for those eligible to receive the Torchbearer Award.

The 2021 Torchbearers include Victoria Havermann, Union County; Rachel Gerlach, Aurora County; Levi Nightingale, Aurora County; Casey Tolsma, Aurora County; Hailey Monson, Brown County; and Faith Schulte, Faulk County.

Hailey Monson of Brown County was also selected to serve as Senior Advisory Council for Farmers Union Youth Programming. Monson is from Brown County and is the daughter of Nicholas and Lyncee Monson. She is a student at South Dakota State University and is studying nursing.
