February 21, 2018 - The District 5 4-H Nutrition contests were held on February 3, 2017 at Stephen F. Austin University in Nacogdoches. We had a record number of 4-H’ers enter in the food show, food challenge, and nutrition poster events. A special thank you to Michele Clark, project leader, and all our 4-H parents for making this an exceptional experience for the youth of Shelby County.
