Author: Rebecca Hayes

Major Program: Communications and Expressive Arts

Plan of Work: Leadership Development in Adults and Youth

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Carter County 4-H had 12 youth complete 13 speech and demonstrations for 2021. This number is down from years, past but is surprisingly better than what was expected for it being a different format. The youth came to the Extension Office to complete their speech or demonstration in front of two judges and were recorded as the District and State competitions are going to be virtual again this year. All of the youth did amazing, and all but two will be moving forward to the District competition.
