πŸŽ‰ STATE BOUND! πŸŽ‰

We are SO proud of our 2026 Tattnall County 4-H Senior Food Challenge Team, Shyanne Busbie and Kaitlyn Eason, for advancing to the State 4-H Food Challenge Contest!

For the competition, the team was given a set of mystery ingredients β€” ground beef, cheddar cheese, and pretzels β€” and challenged to think creatively and turn them into an original dish. Their delicious creation? Spaghetti with Cheddar-Stuffed Meatballs!

From mystery ingredients to a plate worthy of the state competition, Shyanne and Kaitlyn demonstrated creativity, teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and some great culinary skills! πŸ‘

Congratulations, ladies! We are incredibly proud of you and can't wait to see you represent Tattnall County 4-H at STATE!

Way to go, Shyanne & Kaitlyn!

State 4-H Congress results are in and we are excited to announce:

Walker Page placed 2nd in the State for the Fruits, Vegetables and Nuts category.

Jeremiah Ray placed 4th in the State for the General Recreation category.

State 4-H Congress is the state level competition for DPA (District Project Achievement). The state level competition is scored on resume, interview and speech presentation.

Walker & Jeremiah both had the high score in their category for the speech presentation portion, which is an outstanding feat at this level of competition.

It was a busy week of competitions, banquets, tours, and making new friends. Mrs. Rebekah Greene chaperoned the event this week.

If you know a young person interested in competing in DPA for the 2026-2027 school year, now is the time to have them start thinking about their project.

We will do signs ups for grades 4th-12th in September!!!
