February is a busy – and exciting month – in the 4-H youth development world! This weekend (over the Valentine’s holiday) 4-H members will be traveling to Rock Springs 4-H Center for Horse Panorama and to Topeka for Citizenship in Action (CIA). Let’s learn more about these youth learning experiences.
Horse Panorama is state-wide quiz bowl and demonstration contest focused entirely on the subject matter of the horse project. Members learn about hippology, perform demonstrations and participate in judging contests. Youth compete both on individual and a team basis. Different age divisions make this an enjoyable contest for all 4-H youth. This event will take place Saturday and Sunday.
Meanwhile, another set of teens – 13 to be exact – are traveling to our State Capital on Sunday. They will be attending legislative sessions, workshops and visiting with local Representatives and Senators. The delegation will get the opportunity to debate mock bills, one of which is a texting while driving bill. The youth will be seated in both the House and Senate Chambers to debate and vote upon the 3 bills. This is truly government in action!
Riley/Pottawatomie counties are hosting a BB gun, Air Rifle and Air Pistol match in Havensville, Kansas, on Saturday. The event has 193 registered shooters from across the state! Shooters are competing for an opportunity to represent their team at state and nationals. Good luck to all 4-H participants this weekend! Congratulations to all for their hard work!
