Wood County 4-H members showcased project work virtually this year. Members work all year on their projects, and then typically compete at the county fair. Due to COVID-19 and the cancellation of fairs and festivals, Wood County 4-H members exhibited their projects in a virtual showcase!
A total of 94 virtual project exhibits were showcased in several categories. The 4-H program teaches life skills like how to sew, cook, and more. Project work in 4-H connects youth to their interests - building skills for future interests and even careers.
All county blue ribbon winners were submitted and showcased on the State Fair of WV Virtual 4-H Project Exhibit Showcase. All project exhibits submitted received blue ribbon recognition, and one Wood County 4-H member's exhibit received Best of Show! Only 10 members in the state received this recognition.
Congratulations to Emma Daley for winning Best of Show at the State Fair for her Leadership Road Trip project! To see her entire video scrapbook go to https://extensioncommunity.wvu.edu/exhibits/s/State4Hexhibit/media/894.
Congratulations to all of our Wood County 4-H project winners!
