A special thank you to our presenters, the Toth Family from Skagit County and Sienna Traynor (SJC 4-H Alum), for sharing their expertise. It was very exciting to see a large number of the livestock animals that will be exhibited at the fair, including four beef, nine lambs, and five hogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A huge thank you to all of the leaders, volunteers, and parents who helped make the event a success. Thanks to the San Juan County Fairgrounds for providing access to the Marie Boe Building for Fair Entry support, for providing staff to assist in getting the 4-H arena tent raised and to the Honeywell Charitable Foundation for their financial support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Next Learning Opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While we don\u2019t have any learning opportunities on the calendar currently, Clinton would be happy to make a visit to your club meeting to provide fair support in registration, showmanship, and answer any fair-related questions about what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like one-on-one support please reach out to the extension office or attend one of the fair entry support zoom sessions that will be scheduled

Washington State 4-H Teen Conference concluded on Thursday June, 26th. 140 youth, adults, and guests invaded the campus of Washington State University. Youth had the opportunity to stay in Orton Hall, one of WSU&#8217;s residence halls, participate in workshops, and take tours of various campus departments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there were lots of learning opportunities, youth also had lots of time to hang out and visit with each other and participate in a dance, challenge activities, and a community service project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clinton got to facilitate a workshop on how a bill becomes a law and hosted a mock committee hearing on a fictional proposed bill. This is also the theme for this year&#8217;s Know Your Government conference. I also attended workshops on law school and drone building. I had the opportunity to tour the School of Food Science where learned about new food products and got to participate in a blind food taste test. I also got to tour the WSU Creamery and Dairy Facility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in learning more about Teen Conference please reach out to <a href=\"mailto:sanjuan.4-h@wsu.edu\">Clinton<\/a> and he would be happy to share more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next conference opportunity will be the Teen Summit that takes place on Whidbey Island usually in November.

The Shaw Island 4-H Club invited Orcas Island artist, Brook Meinhardt, to do a demonstration on Beach Trash Art. There were about 15 youth participating in creating amazing art pieces with up-cylced beach trash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brook brought a variety of washed and cleaned styrofoam, plastic, rope, and other things that washed up on the beach. Youth were encouraged to create birds out of the items but their imagination was really the only limitation. We saw an eagle, jellyfish, skateboard ramp, and so many other amazing creations being built. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the 4-H youth plan to exhibit some of their creations at the Fair and the Shaw Island Club is looking to do a group exhibit\/mobile of their creations. This is a great example of a club activity that teaches environmental stewardship and is fun and hands on at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The club&#8217;s next project is their annual rocket launch day where the club gets to shoot the rocket models that they build and learn all about rocket science, gravity and physics! <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"594\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-792x594.jpg\" alt=\"Shaw island residents learn about how to make beach trash art from instructor Brook. \" class=\"wp-image-11905\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-792x594.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-396x297.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/IMG_0810-198x149.jpg 198w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-row wsu-row--halves\" >\r\n    \n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"1408\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n-792x1408.jpg\" alt=\"Colorful plastic pieces, sorted by color and arranged around a table on trays\" class=\"wp-image-11906\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n-792x1408.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n-396x704.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n-111x198.jpg 111w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499634460_10164430884479573_4717578024221941546_n.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"1094\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n-792x1094.jpg\" alt=\"Creative art work created by a five-year-old participant described as being a bird and tree house made from beach trash. \" class=\"wp-image-11907\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n-792x1094.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n-396x547.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n-768x1061.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n-1112x1536.jpg 1112w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n-143x198.jpg 143w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/06\/499156245_10164430884884573_6267642762795886285_n.jpg 1483w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-container wsu-dropshadow--medium wsu-spacing-top--small wsu-spacing-bottom--small wsu-spacing-padding-left--xsmall wsu-spacing-padding-right--sxxsmall\" >\r\n    \n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading  wsu-heading--style-marked\">Ideas of Fun Things to Enter &amp; Do at the San Juan County Fair<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-row wsu-row--halves\" >\r\n    \n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<p class=\"wsu-spacing-after--small\">Have you taken the time to look through all the departments you can enter in the fair?
