The hallways of Salina South Middle School were filled with excited Central Kansas Extension District 4-H members Feb. 15 for the annual 4-H Club Day competition.
The numerous 4-H members were anxiously waiting for their time with the judge for their demonstrations, project talks, public speaking and talent numbers.
While 4-H members anxiously awaited for results they had the opportunity to participate in service projects. “The Wellness Tote Service Project” filled totes that were constructed during the 48 Hours of 4-H Service Tailgate Party. These will be donated to the Wellness Tote Project which provides the totes to people undergoing cancer treatments. Emma Littich was the coordinator of this service project.
The second service project was “Inspire Kids to Do Service Activity Area” which included a no-sew dog tug toy project. The dog toys will be donated to area dog rescues. Madison Repp was the coordinator of this service project.
The one-day event provided the opportunity for 4-H members to develop their speaking abilities in front of groups while a judge evaluated their performance. All 4-H members participating received a ribbon for their performance. The top award winners qualified for regional competition on March 28 at Clay Center.
Those receiving either a purple or top purple and alternate winners were:
