The UF/IFAS Escambia County Extension Office hosted 4-H County Events on March 5 and 6. 4-H County Events consist of competitions in public speaking, demonstrations and illustrated talks, photography, graphic design and share-the-fun (talent) activities.
The socially distanced event featured 29 youth, submitting 66 different entries. Congratulations to all of the 4-H participants who will go on to the state competition.
This year all senior blue ribbon demonstrations and the first place senior public speaker and Share-the-Fun participants will go on to State 4-H Events. The top junior (8-10 years old), intermediate (11-13 years old), and senior (14+ years old) photographs will now proceed to the state contest. For graphic design competitions, all blue-ribbon winners will be eligible for the state contest at 4-H University at the University of Florida in July!

The photo contest provided a showcase for 4-H members’ photographic accomplishments. The winning photographs were displayed with the intent of increasing public awareness and understanding of the 4-H program and the top overall photo taken by Katherine Ballard is being exhibited inside the Langley Bell 4-H Center.
County Events would not be possible without our many adult volunteers. They serve as judges, room monitors, scorekeepers, and more! A big thank you goes out to our speech and talent judges and volunteers for all of their hard work: Danielle Blum, Cheryl Nelson, Taylor Nelson, Kaycee Patel, Ravin Patel, Darin Schubeck, Melissa Schubeck, and Angela Tinker. We would also like to thank the Wide Angle Photo Club for sending members Gail Barsh, Connie Marse, John Mankelwicz, and Loretto Sitton to judge the photography contest.
If this sounds fun and you want to help make the best, better, then please consider volunteering with Escambia County 4-H. Please call the 4-H office at 850-475-5230 to get started today.
Congratulations again to all of the 4-H members for their efforts at Escambia County 4-H Events!
