Project Specific Information
Included in the 4-H Project exhibit requirements distributed in fall 2019 identified what was needed for a judge to evaluate the learning and knowledge gain associated with each 4-H exhibit opportunity. While we believe completing all of these experiences still provides the best educational experience for the 4-H member, with the transition to a virtual 4-H exhibition experience, members are only required to upload the elements listed in the Virtual 2020 Fair Entry Exhibit Requirements for a judge to review. Please continue to use this show book as a starting place but refer to the Virtual Exhibit Requirement spreadsheet for guidance on the new exhibit requirements.
