Judging Day-November
4-H JUDGING DAY
The Annual Kings County 4-H Judging Day will be held on Saturday, November 8th, at the Kings District Fairgrounds. This event is open to all Kings County 4-H members.
There will be three divisions from which to choose. They are:
Livestock: (including dairy cattle, goats, sheep, swine, beef and rabbits)
Home Economics
General
Members may judge in all three divisions.
A class is a group of four items or animals that you are asked to evaluate and rank in order from the best to the worst. For example, you may be asked to look at four hogs and place them in order based on how they look. Each animal or item has a number and you mark a card next to the way you think the numbers should be arranged. You will receive points for how close you come to matching the way an expert thinks the class should be placed.
You will give oral reasons on one class. That means you will go up to a designated person and tell him or her why you placed the class the way you did. You will receive points for how convincing your reasons are.
Registration will be from 9:00 to 9:30 a.m., with a mandatory orientation assembly at 9:30 a.m.

There will be designated group leaders to answer questions members have about the process. If you have a question, ask this person.

You will be dropped from the competition if you continue to talk after your first warning.
