Christina Zito-Hebert, Simoneaux, Susan
Sixteen local 4-H’ers represented Iberville Parish at 4-H University in a series of statewide contests at Louisiana State University. 1,415 youth from across Louisiana attended 4-HU June 18-21. Iberville 4-H’ers trained and competed in various contests, such as Photography, Public Speaking, Solutions Unlimited, The Louisiana Chef, Fashion Review, Sports Broadcasting, Computer Simulation, and Insect Identification. Sophia Tempanaro, a 9th Grader at St. John High School, was elected to represent Iberville Parish on the 4-H State Citizenship Board. Tempanaro will assist in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of statewide and parish level service-learning projects.
“Iberville Parish was well-represented by the 2013 4-HU Delegates,” Iberville 4-H Agent Christina Zito stated. “The students trained for months prior to competing at 4-HU, and their dedication were rewarded with statewide recognition.”

Second Place Winners included: Christen Diamond, The Louisiana Chef Contest; Gabrielle Deslatte, Fashion Review: Ready-to-Wear Contest. Third Place Winner: Madeline LeBlanc, Photography Contest.
