Jason Brockman, a junior at Sandy Creek High School, has been selected as one of 26 outstanding Nebraska 4-H members to earn the opportunity to represent Nebraska at the National 4-H Congress, in Atlanta, beginning on Friday, Nov. 29, running through Tuesday, Dec. 3.

Brockman, the son of Steve and Cheryl Brockman of Deweese, was selected, according to Brockman, based on his writing and keeping track of his record book throughout his 4-H career.

“I won the animal science division related to my record book organization, locally, on the district level, as well as on the state level,” shared Brockman.

For over 99 years, the National 4-H Congress has been a premiere nationwide opportunity for 4-H members across America.

The event was originally held in Chicago before moving to the “Capitol of the South,” Atlanta.

The five-day event engages high school aged 4-H members in leadership, citizenship, global awareness, and inclusion.
