Happy June to everyone. I am very proud to start off this message congratulating and honoring two of our high school graduates; Jalen King, with the Titans 4-H Club, and Tristan Morgan with the 4-H Animal Science Club, the Dirty Dozen Shooting Sports Club, and the Dirty Rascals Junior Master Gardener 4-H Club. Way to go Gentlemen! We can't wait to see what the future holds for both of you.

We are excited to announce the Dinah Gore 4-H Healthy Food Challenge for 2021. This contest challenges an individual or a team of two 4-H members to create a dish using a mystery basket of ingredients. The final dish should highlight the mystery basket ingredients and basic items they have at home. Individuals or team members must identify and prepare the dish, then make a presentation video about it. The pre-determined mystery basket of ingredients will be available on June 18. One team from the 14-18 age group will be selected to attend the National 4-H Food Challenge in September in Texas. This year the contest is virtual and youth must upload a pre-recorded video. We are using the same timeline as State 4-H Presentation Finals. This contest is open to any 4-H'er who meets the requirements. You must be registered in 4-HOnline to participate as well. Age Categories are: 8-10, 11-13 and 14-18. The entry deadline is July 12, 2021. Registration will be open in 4-HOnline by July 1 for youth to register and upload their videos.
