This week the Shout Out is from Rebecca McFarland, Frontier District Director; and is sent for Tawnie Larson, Project Consultant, Carl and Melinda Helwig Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering and Stress and Resiliency Team member. Rebecca writes:

"I'd like to give a shout-out to Tawnie Larson, Project Consultant, Carl and Melinda Helwig Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering and Stress and Resiliency Team member. Tawnie chairs the Stress and Resiliency Team exhibit committee. She, along with committee members Jessica Kootz, Cindy Walker, and Sandra Wick, created kits for Stress and Resiliency team members to use at field days, health fairs, Celebrate Ag Day, annual conference, etc. The exhibit promotes mental well-being by normalizing conversations about mental health and seeking help. Thank you, Tawnie and committee members, for your creativity and commitment to wellness. The exhibit was even a big hit with Oklahoma State fans at Celebrate Ag Day."

Tawnie -- thanks for all you do for the people of Kansas, our colleagues and K-State Research and Extension.
