🏆🎉 NATIONAL BOUND! 🎉🏆

Congratulations to the Noxubee County 4-H Consumer Judging and Decision Making Team of Caidon Sanders, Tyler Brooks, and C.J. Coleman for winning the Mississippi 4-H Consumer Judging and Decision Making Contest at 4-H Congress! Their hard work, dedication, and critical thinking skills have earned them the opportunity to represent Mississippi at the National 4-H Consumer Decision Making Contest in San Antonio, Texas, January 13-15, 2027.

The 4-H Consumer Judging and Decision Making Contest teaches youth valuable life skills by challenging them to evaluate products and services, compare alternatives, identify strengths and weaknesses, and make informed decisions based on facts rather than emotions. Participants learn how to analyze information, set priorities, justify their choices, and communicate their reasoning effectively.

These are the same decision-making skills that will benefit our 4-H'ers throughout their lives. Whether choosing a college, selecting a career path, purchasing a vehicle, buying a home, or making everyday financial decisions, the ability to carefully compare options and make sound choices is essential for success. Through 4-H, youth gain real-world experience that helps prepare them to become confident consumers, responsible citizens, and future leaders.

Please join us in congratulating Caidon, Tyler, and C.J. on this remarkable accomplishment and wishing them the best as they represent Noxubee County and Mississippi on the national stage in San Antonio! A Big “Thank You” to United Way of The Golden Triangle Region for their financial support and to all the Noxubee County 4-H Volunteers who have helped train and mentor our 4-H’ers! 💚☘️💚

Our Noxubee County 4-H’ers know it’s important to stretch before you do any strenuous exercise especially a fun one like DANCING!!!!

05/29/2026

Noxubee County 4-H’ers Tyler Brooks, C.J. Coleman, and Caidon Sanders are participating in the 2026 4-H Congress being held on the campus of Mississippi State University in Starkville, Mississippi, where they competed in the very exciting 4-H Has Got Talent Contest!

This outstanding event gave our youth an opportunity to showcase their creativity, confidence, and talents while interacting with 4-H members from across the state. During 4-H Congress, participants also took part in leadership training sessions, educational workshops, contests, and community service activities designed to help them grow into productive leaders and citizens.

By participating in events like 4-H Has Got Talent, 4-H’ers learn valuable life skills such as public speaking, teamwork, self-confidence, communication, responsibility, leadership, and sportsmanship. They also learn the importance of serving others, building friendships, and stepping outside of their comfort zones to try new experiences.

We are proud of our Noxubee County 4-H’ers for representing our county so well and for continuing to “learn by doing” through positive youth development opportunities! 🍀💚
