Congratulations to Cape May County’s Kelly Hunter, Pitchforks & Buckets 4-H Club, and Shea Mayer, Lower Cape May Regional High School 4-H Club, who both received Excellent Ribbons at 4-H State Public Presentations held on June 8, 2019 at the Cook/Douglass Campus of Rutgers University in New Brunswick. 

Over 125 4-H members from throughout the state take part in this event which offers qualified 4-H members an advanced Public Speaking experience. 

New to the contest this year was a Virtual Presentation Division that allowed eligible members, unable to attend public presentations, to participate by submitting a video presentation. Six Cape May County 4-H members participated in the Virtual Presentation Division, they are: Mina LaFrance, Andrew Heim, Elise Heim, Robbie Elwell, Kathleen DeGenova, and Lauren Miller.
