We look forward to hosting again next year, likely in February or March 2026. If you would like to join the planning team, please contact Clinton via <a href=\"mailto:sanjuan.4-H@wsu.edu\">email<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A huge thank you to all of the leaders and volunteers who helped make the event a success. Also thanks to the San Juan County Fairgrounds for allowing us to use the Marie Boe Building, Cousin Vinnie&#8217;s Pizza for coming in early to make lunch, and the Honeywell Charitable Foundation for their financial support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading  wsu-font-size--xxmedium\">Next learning opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The San Juan Livestock club has tentatively scheduled a livestock showmanship clinic and early weigh-in day for June 14. There will also be Fair Entry support and education on that day if anyone needs assistance getting registered for fair. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wsu-spacing-after--small\">Clinton is going to start working with club leaders to visit club meetings in May to help answer questions about fair, fair registration, and what to expect through the summer! He will also host some online sessions to help answer questions as we approach July. <\/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\/04\/Food-Pres-792x594.jpg\" alt=\"A group of youth learning about food preservation from two leaders\" class=\"wp-image-11043\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Food-Pres-792x594.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Food-Pres-396x297.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Food-Pres-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Food-Pres-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Food-Pres-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Food-Pres-198x149.jpg 198w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"1056\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-792x1056.jpg\" alt=\"A youth mentoring another youth on how to show a dog\" class=\"wp-image-11044\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-792x1056.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-396x528.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-149x198.jpg 149w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Dogs-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\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\/04\/Robotics-792x594.jpg\" alt=\"A group of youth being instructed on Lego robotics by two leaders\" class=\"wp-image-11045\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robotics-792x594.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robotics-396x297.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robotics-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robotics-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robotics-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robotics-198x149.jpg 198w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"1056\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-792x1056.jpg\" alt=\"Two 4-H youth members working on a lego robot\" class=\"wp-image-11046\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-792x1056.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-396x528.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-149x198.jpg 149w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/53\/2025\/04\/Robot-Kids-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n        <div id=\"cahnrs-back-to-top\" class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top\" hidden aria-hidden=\"true\">\n            <a id=\"cahnrs-back-to-top-btn\" class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top__btn\" href=\"#product-top\" aria-label=\"Back to top\">\n                <span class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top__icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u2191<\/span>\n                <span class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top__label\">Back to top<\/span>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a fun day of learning and collaborating!<\/p>\n<p>22 youth from Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan Island gathered at the San Juan County Fairgrounds on Saturday, April 26th.
