Warren County 4-H Judging and Achievement Day was held June 12 at Immanuel United Church of Christ in Marthasville. The event was a great opportunity for 4-H members and clover kids to showcase what they have learned in 4-H and to improve their skills in public speaking, reasoning and communications. 

All 4-H members and clover kids were encouraged to attend and 65 members took advantage of the opportunity and were grateful for all the volunteers that made the event possible. 

The event concluded with an award ceremony where blue, red and white ribbons were awarded to each participant according to performance level. Gold ribbons were awarded to the top blue ribbon participants in each judging and achievement event. Clover kids aged five to seven years received participation ribbons.
