Impact Reports
District Horse Show
4-H members attend a district horse show to qualify for State. Each year 4-H members attend and compete in several classes to qualify for the state Horse Show held during the State Fair. Judging the members for their knowledge and skills is one way of choosing who will represent their county. The members are provided with leader and agent instruction and compete at various horse shows to gain experience. This year about 50 4-H members attended and competed at District Horse Show in Valencia County which was a prequalifying show for the State Horse Show. The one day show was put on by McKinley County agents, 4-H leaders and parents. It was a successful show in qualifying members in several events.

OYD Fun with Food
Native Americans like the rest of the world are concerned with obesity. The likelihood of their youth being obese is very real. Nutrition education has prompted healthy eating and regular exercise to prevent children from having diabetes or other health problems. The home economist provided nutrition education in four sessions for youth at Crownpoint Boys and Girls Club every Friday afternoon for the month of October. The Sessions ran from October 8, 2010 to November 12, 2010. Youth learned how to read nutrition facts, learned about MyPyramid, prepared healthy snacks and received nutrition information to take home and share with their parents who also need to learn about healthy eating and the importance of exercise. 23 youth ages 5-13 attended four sessions and received the Fun with Food completion certificate.

FoodPlay Lincoln Elementary
Students, teachers, food service and health staff attended the live theater show and participated in the activities. The shows are evidence-based programs that improve children’s eating and physical activity habits, and they bring the messages home. 154 students and 53 staff members from Lincoln Elementary will never forget the characters and their messages. To help drive the message home there are more resources on the FoodPlay websites, free materials to download and several other links for kid, teens, parents, and educators. FoodPlay provided evaluations following the production. The school completed and returned the documents to FoodPlay.

FoodPlay Jefferson Elementary
Turning kids on to healthy habits is easily done with free resources. This year 132 youth and 36 staff members from Jefferson Elementary were given the opportunity to attend FoodPlay Production (live theater show). The students and staff enjoyed music, juggling, colorful characters, magic, and motivating messages to get everyone on board behind healthy eating and active lifestyles. Youth learned to balance their nutrition and physical activity habits, critically evaluate media messages and peer pressures, and make choices that are good for their health. Following the live theater show a comprehensive resource kit with materials for everyone (students, teachers, parents, food service, and health staff) is given to the school. The event was well received and future plans are being set in motion to bring FoodPlay to other schools in McKinley County next year
