Congratulations to Andrew and Aubrey Devillier on completing this project. This was not an easy task. Andrew and Aubrey are our Parish Winner for the largest pumpkin weighing in at 42lbs , 39 lbs, smallest at .2 lbs, most unique, and best records! 4-H members were given the opportunity to grow their own pumpkins to compete in a statewide contest.
With a little help from other 4-H Youth Development Professionals and Dr. Fontenot’s team, the pumpkin contest took off with approximately 600 4-H members from 46 parishes participating
We continue to wait the state results.
This activity will encourage participants to learn more about the beef industry while encouraging beef industry, product, and nutrition promotion. Through creative and original thinking participants will develop a visual form of marketing communication to convey thoughts and ideas. Participants are expected to create original work using resources wisely. The rules of the Beef Poster Contest are as follows:
