Interview Judging Day 2021
We are looking forward to seeing you at 2021 Interview Judging Day next Tuesday, August 3rd!
This year there will be some changes to the check-in process, so we greatly appreciate your patience and understanding. In the spirit of 4-H, we are again learning by doing and seeking to make the best better!
Please read the following carefully. This will help the day flow more smoothly.
On arrival, all members should enter the Exhibit Hall in the McKee Building at The Ranch. Signs will indicate where you check-in, based on the first letter of your last name. (Shooting sports also needs to go to the Exhibit Hall for check-in this year.) At the check-in table, you will receive a manila envelope with pink cards in it. You will receive two matching pink cards for each of your exhibits.
Please keep your cards in the envelope until you are called for an interview, to prevent them from being lost or damaged. When you are called for an interview, present the two matching cards for the correct class to the volunteer. They will assist you in attaching the pink cards to your Record Book and Exhibit.
You will then complete your interview as usual. We appreciate you taking care to not lose your cards during this process.
Lastly, please remember that you must pick up your projects on August 11th between 7:00–10:00 a.m. Please plan accordingly.
We look forward to seeing you soon! Good luck with your final touches!
Best,
Cindy Buckardt

Cloverbuds July Meeting
Our Cloverbuds tried their hand at Leathercraft. These will be their projects to enter in the county fair.
Fair Project Labels
Since we are using the Fair Entry software system for projects this year, a pink card will be attached to each project when it is checked in on August 3.
However, we recommend labeling your project with your name and the project just in case the card gets separated while at the Fair.
