4-H Judging Judging is an important life skill, which teaches the process of evaluation and how to identify important characteristics that can improve quality in an item or animal. If your club has never attended a judging competition, no problem! Your Regional 4-H Specialist can present a Judging workshop for your club or your club members can attend judging workshops. Many of the Regional 4-H Judging Competitions have a judging clinic or workshop for younger members or beginners to judging. Regional judging competitions select only the top eight senior members to be Regional Judging Teams. Most judging competitions also combine a judging clinic for younger members. You do not need to be in a livestock project to participate. Here are the dates for upcoming Regional 4-H Judging competitions: • Swift Current Regional Judging – June 27 • Weyburn Regional 4-H Judging – July 1 • Prairieland Park Regional 4-H Judging – July 6
Provincial 4-H Judging August 23-24 Moosomin

We are excited to have a booth again this year at Agribition November 25-30, 2019 in Regina. For the last two years, we’ve been in the International Trade Centre, close to the barns. We are hoping to bring a new exciting contest for 4-H members to take part in this year! Last year, we had 4-H’ers find some of our sponsor booths and get stamps on their passports to get a prize. We hope to see all of you there!
