To support Hawaiʻi<\/span>‘s youth during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Hawaiʻi<\/span> State 4-H<\/abbr> program<\/a>, part of the Cooperative Extension Service housed in the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at M\u0101noa College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources<\/a> (CTAHR<\/abbr>) has created a virtual video cooking contest<\/a> for youth in Hawaiʻi<\/span> ages 12–18. Entrants do not need to be a current 4-H<\/abbr> member to participate in the contest.<\/p>\n

The goal is for participants to create a video featuring a local commodity (plant or animal) that demonstrates the successful completion of a healthful recipe. Entrants will participate in county-level competitions, and county winners will be selected to compete in a state-wide competition. The state round of the contest will showcase the county winners\u2019 food photography skills. <\/p>\n

As part of the challenge, the aspiring cooks will learn food safety, kitchen skills, nutrition facts and presentation skills. The contest is supported with resources from the 糖心视频<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Extension GET<\/abbr> Local program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Submissions are due by April 30, but youth will need to be registered for the challenge in order to participate in the contest and receive updates. To register, visit the 4-H<\/abbr> registration page at: http:\/\/go.hawaii.edu\/AD6<\/a> or contact Nancy Ooki<\/strong>, Hawaiʻi<\/span> State 4-H<\/abbr> Program Coordinator at (808) 244-3242 ext. 225 or by email<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Awards for the contest will be provided by support from The Ardis Tanaka Foods and Nutrition Project Support Award. Tanaka, a CTAHR<\/abbr> alumna, was a member of the Inspirations 4-H<\/abbr> club and also served as a 4-H<\/abbr> leader for the Reminiscence 4-H<\/abbr> club for five years and had a lifelong impact on the lives of its eight members. She helped her club members with various 4-H<\/abbr> projects and guided her members through their teenage years. <\/p>\n

When Tanaka died in November 2009, her club members and 4-H<\/abbr> alumni friends created a scholarship fund to support food and nutrition projects and continue her legacy of “making the best better.” <\/p>\n
