It was STAC! The State Teen Association Convention, held in the end of June every year. Teens from around the state converged on the University of Idaho Campus to learn about careers, college, and themselves. Meeting peers and fellow 4-H members from around the state, youth attending STAC have the opportunity to explore the University of Idaho in all its glory. From needles and thread to solder and LEDs to dairy and agriculture. GAME ON!

Jeremy visits with youth delegates attending STAC from around the state. Whether it's on the bus, in the Living Learning Communities on campus, or in the Bruce M. Pitman center (trying to avoid Joe's "sick beats"), we'll hear from youth and volunteers excited to be playing the game at STAC.
