Box Elder 4‑H students selected as presenters at national 4‑H Ignite conference
Summary
Four Box Elder County 4‑H members said the county’s programs were selected to present at 4‑H Ignite in Washington, D.C.; planned workshops include an inclusion‑focused horse camp and a ranching program integrating technology.
Kennedy Richards, representing Box Elder County 4‑H, said the county was selected for 4‑H Ignite where youth present workshops and demonstrate leadership. "Ignite is not just a trip. It is an opportunity for youth to present workshops, teach others, and show how 4‑H programs help young people build confidence, skills, and leadership," Richards said.
Josie Ormond said one workshop, "I Wish I Had a Horse Camp," teaches youth who lack horse experience about horse care and safe handling, with a focus on inclusion. Kelly Adams described a ranching workshop that will show how modern technology — including virtual fences and roping tech — connects with traditional ranching and career pathways for rural youth. Commissioners and staff praised the delegation and offered pins and materials to represent the county.
