(Rome, NY – May 2013) 4-H Members from Herkimer, Madison, Oneida and Oswego Counties converged upon Tractor Supply in Rome NY on Saturday May 11 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. to participate in 4-H North Central District Public Presentations.
All of the youth participating at Tractor Supply in Rome have completed various levels of competition to reach the 4-H District Event. In the past the District Event was the pinnacle of accomplishment for these participants. This year the 4-H State Event has been resurrected and provides our senior speakers an opportunity to compete against fellow NY State 4-H Members at Cornell on May 18th.
The following youth represented Oneida County at the District Event:
Samantha Fairchild
Whitney Semans
Katie Wilson
Both Samantha and Whitney qualified to represent Oneida County at the 4-H State Public Speaking Event at Cornell University.
