State and National 4-H Achievement Award judging took place on January 14. The day was a great success with positive feedback from all who participated. This year we had 28 resumes from 6 counties with most youth applying for multiple awards. Four youth applied to attend National Dairy Conference; 14 applied for National 4-H Conference; 18 applied for National 4-H Congress; and two applied for a State Achivement Award only.
The award recipeients are as follows:
National Dairy Conference Jessica Chickering, Cheshire; Rowen Goss, Grafton; Emily Malnati, Cheshire; Abby Patch, Grafton.
National 4-H Conference - Tomas Bowling, Rockingham; Rebecca Vogel, Cheshire; and Katelyn Wuebbolt, Hillsborough. Alternates (in order); Jacob Burgess, Grafton; Jay Rice, Rockingham; Amanda Shultz, Rockingham.
National 4-H Congress - Lindsay Bigelow, Grafton; Tomas Bowling, Rockingham; Rachel Henderson, Hillsborough; Holly Weeks, Rockingham; and Katelyn Wuebbolt, Hillsborough. Alternates (in order); Cori Magnusson, Rockingham; Amanda Shultz, Rockingham; Rebecca Hines, Hillsborough; Jennie Fogg, Belknap; Martha Robie, Grafton.
State Achievement Awards - All National Award Winners and alternates will receive a State Achivement Award as well as; Lester Barthelemy, Rockingham; Valerie Caswell, Rockingham; Emily Chase, Belknap; Christopher Humber, Hillsborough; Emilea Raymond, Hillsborough; Linda Verville, Hillsborough.
The judges decided that Andrew Davis and Alison Fortin needed to built their resumes a bit more before receiving State Achievement Awards.
Thank you to all the counties for your support of the awards process!
