Pat Boyes

Pat Boyes is the Director of the Washington State University 4-H Youth Development Program. Building the capacity of youth to become citizen scientists is exciting fundamental work of the 4-H Program. From the earliest days, with its canning and corn clubs, 4-H championed the leading edge of scientific inquiry. And 112 years later, 4-H continues to lead in engaging young people with the excitement of science. Pat’s life mission continues to be to change the world and she chooses to make that change one young life at a time. Her commitment to 4-H found its roots in her own experiences as a 4-H’er in Washington State, with projects that ranged from dairy and horse to leadership and public speaking. Both her undergraduate (Animal Sciences/Reproductive Physiology/Nutrition) and graduate degree (Adult and Continuing Education) are from WSU. After teaching at a community college for two years, Pat joined the faculty of WSU first as a regional animal science specialist, later as a county director and for the past 21 years as the administrator for the statewide 4-H Program.
