Encouraging interest in STEM-related topics is a driving force behind many Woodford County 4-H opportunities. Included in this is the 4-H Lego Robotics club, which began practicing in January to prepare for the District 4 4-H Lego Robotics Competition held at Woodford County Middle School on Saturday, April 21^st. Over 40 youth from four counties, including Woodford, Estill, Madison and Clark, spent the day competing against each other during this culminating event for many 4-H Robotics Clubs. Participants were tasked with two challenges, each requiring the 4-H’ers to develop, plan, build and program their robot in order to successfully complete each task and earn points. Competition participants were surveyed at the end of the day on their experiences with 4-H Lego Robotics. Of those  4-H’ers who responded, 53% reported that they were more interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, 65% reported that they got better at problem solving, 79% reported that they learned to work with their teammates and 84% reported that they made at least one new friend, all because of their participating in 4-H Lego Robotics. In addition, 25% of the participants reported that they do not participate in other 4-H activities outside of 4-H Lego Robotics, highlighting that incorporating STEM-based opportunities into a county 4-H program helps reach youth who may not necessarily gravitate towards more traditional 4-H programming.
