Simpson County 4-H had five members advance to national contests in 2023. Three youth represented KY on the senior horse bowl team that competed at Eastern Nationals, Quarter Horse Congress, and Southern Horse Regionals. In addition, one member represented KY at the National Egg Conference on the Avian Bowl team. One member also joined Warren Co. 4-H on Kentucky's Culinary Challenge team that competed at the Texas State Fair. Having five youth win state and compete in national 4-H events is a testament to the impact 4-H had on them as they have grown throughout their years in 4-H. "I never thought seven years ago when we started to compete together as a team we would be lucky enough to compete on a National 4-H Horse Bowl Team. I am grateful for the past few years and all the opportunities & memories 4-H has provided me." "4-H has a huge impact on my life. It's given me so many opportunities to grown and help me become a part of who I am today. I've also developed many long lasting relationships, gained lots of knowledge over the years, and I know there is more to come." Once a youth wins any of these contests on the state level and competes in the national national contest they cannot compete in the events again.
