WORLAND — Washakie County 4-H Week begins Saturday with a breakfast of donuts and coffee from 9 to 11 a.m. in conjunction with the 2020 Wyoming State Champion Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off and Pumpkin Drop.
Washakie County 4-H Educator Amber Armajo said they canceled the pancake breakfast due to COVID-19, looking for a less “hands-on” breakfast to provide the community.
The past two years Washakie County 4-H moved their celebration of National 4-H Week to align with the giant pumpkin event.
Youth in Washakie County are encouraged to participate in other events and be eligible for a drawing.
During the Washakie County 4-H Week, Sept. 26-Oct. 3, there will be “selfie stations” around the Worland community. Youth can take a selfie with the sign and post on social media using #WashakieCounty4-H.
Trivia questions can be answered on social media on Monday, Sept. 28 and Friday, Oct. 2, Armajo said.
STEM Challenge, with a focus on Mars, will be Sept. 29 at the Worland Youth Learning Center at 4 p.m.
Wednesday people are asked to wear green or a 4-H Clover to show 4-H Spirit. To enter the prize drawing post a photo on social media or email to [email protected].
Thursday, Oct. 1 the 4-H year starts with the first four who sign up online getting free enrollment. All others will get 50% off through the month of October.
“You don’t have to be in 4-H to participate. We are excited to have the community participate. We wanted to make this year a COVID friendly week,” Armajo said.
