COURT HOUSE – Not even a pandemic can stop 4-H youth from performing their annual public presentations.
According to a release, the Cape May County 4-H Youth Development Program has announced that 4-H public presentations will be conducted virtually this year.
Scheduled to take place at the end of March, the week-long event was postponed due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, per a directive from Rutgers University. Rutgers is NJ’s land grant institution and home to Rutgers Cooperative Extension (RCE), parent organization to 4-H.
4-Hers have been invited to submit a virtual presentation by May 15 by recording their presentation using a smartphone and uploading to a secure YouTube channel not available to the public. Only screened and trained 4-H volunteer judges will be able to access the presentations.
