‘Shiver Me Tymbers’ campaign wins Tymber Garrett the Beta Vice presidency

Mar 20, 2024 | 10:41 AM

In a momentous victory for both herself and her school community, Tymber Garrett, a fourth-grade student from Metcalfe County, has been elected as the Kentucky State Vice President of the Beta Club. Tymber’s remarkable achievement not only showcases her leadership prowess at a young age but also serves as an inspiration to her peers and educators alike.

Tymber stood out among her fellow candidates with her unwavering commitment to service and her innovative ideas for fostering positive change within the organization.

Garrett’s journey to leadership began with her active involvement in making a difference in her community. One project, a lemonade stand that she started has given hundreds of dollars to the local animal shelter, and raised around a thousand to aid those in Eastern Kentucky effected by flooding.
