Last night was a memorable evening as Queen Shannon and 1st Runner Up Sami proudly presented the 2026 4H ambassadors—Laura VanDerZanden Twiss, Emma Miller, and Clinton Hallack—with special belt buckles to celebrate their 2nd year in this important role!

It’s inspiring to witness the youth of Oceana County embracing agriculture, and we’re truly honored to be a part of their journey. Here’s to many more achievements in the future!
