In February, Emma Littich - a member of the Smoky View 4-H Club - won the State Kansas Award Portfolio (KAP) Award in the performing arts project. 

In a KAP, there are goals that a club member wants to achieve in a specific project throughout the 4-H year, which runs from October through September of the next year. There is also a story that describes what the 4-H member did in the project. 

Emma has been in the performing arts project for 10 years. 

“I like it because it connects me to a lot of different people,” she said, “And I can express myself in many different ways.”  

Some of the goals that Emma had in her performing arts KAP were taking a part in school and community theater, and also taking private lessons for playing the violin. 

In 2019, Emma also won the State KAP Award for the health and wellness project. The goals she wanted to achieve in the health and wellness project were being active, eating more healthy foods, and being on a dance team.
