ELKHART COUNTY — The Elkhart County 4-H Performing Arts, Public Speaking and Demonstrations Contest will be held on Tuesday, April 26, at 6 p.m. at the NorthWood High School Auditorium, SR 19, Nappanee. Registration for the event begins at 5:30 p.m.

The 4-H event is an opportunity for local youth to share their various talents on stage.

Contestants may perform in a curtain act (non-nusical), curtain act (musical), or group act (five or more performers). In the past, we have had performers dance, sing, tell a story, reenact TV shows, perform skits, play instruments, etc.

If you are a 4-H’er and would like to participate, speak with your 4-H club leader or contact the Purdue Extension Elkhart County office at (574) 533-0554 and complete a registration Form by April 19.

This event is entirely free to the general public. So come out and support our talented young people.
