Carteret County Youth participate in 2024 District and State Presentations

4-H Presentations are an integral part of North Carolina 4-H. It is one of the most successful ways to help a young person learn how to do a public speech. It focuses on members teaching others what they know about a particular project/subject matter. Carteret County 4-H hosts various workshop leading up to presentations that assist youth in selecting a topic, writing a speech and practicing their presentation. All youth, ages 5-18, are welcome to attend these workshops to develop their public speaking skills. 

On June 14, eight Carteret County 4-H youth competed at District Activity Day, held on the campus of University of Mount Olive. Over 175 youth from across the Southeast District participated. Youth, ages 8 and up, who received Gold or Silver at this event qualified to move on to the state competition in July. Youth ages 5-7 only competed at the district level in the Cloverbud category. 

Walter Stevenson, age 6, competed in the Cloverbud Category where he received a Blue ribbon for his presentation, “How to Get Started Grilling.” 

Gold and Silver medal recipients in each of the 35 categories from the five North Carolina 4-H Districts came together on July 23 at Enloe Magnet High School in Raleigh for the State Competition. 

Ella Hill competed in the 8-10 year old Foods and Nutrition category with her presentation entitled, “How to Make Chicken Pot Pie.” She received a Gold medal at District and a Bronze medal at State.

Carter Becton presented “The Three Branches of Government” in the 8-10 year old Citizenship and Community Service category. He received a Gold medal at both District and State.

Davin Tucker competed in the 8-10 year old Wheels and Engines category, presenting “American Cars vs. Foreign Cars.” He received a Silver medal at both the District and State level.

Isla Espinoza presented “What You Need for Proper Care of a Hamster” in the 8-10 year old Small and Companion Animal category. She received a Gold medal at District and a Silver medal at State. Isla also competed in 4-H Entertains, a talent showcase held at District Activity Day.

Lucille Stevenson competed in the 8-10 year old Small and Companion Animal category with her presentation entitled, “How to Start Training Dogs.” She received a Silver medal at the District competition.

Cate-Hill Binkley presented “CPR and Intubation” in the 11-13 year old Health and Fitness category. She received a Gold medal at both the District and State level.

Bethany Copeland presented “My Journey with Fisheries and Wildlife – Past, Present and Future” in the 14-18 year old Fisheries and Aquatics category. She received a Gold medal at the District and State level. Bethany also competed in 4-H Entertains, a talent showcase held at District Activity Day.

Competitions like these help youth develop life skills that will follow them throughout adulthood. Congratulations to each of them on their continued accomplishments in public speaking. In addition to their medals and ribbons, they will be presented with monetary prizes later in the year.
