Project Record and Portfolio Judging


 Please see the following information from Shannon McCollum from the State 4-H Office concerning 4-H Project Record and Portfolio Judging.

4-H Record Books and Portfolios are in so you know what that means. We are in need of judges. We all know that judges are a vital part of this process and we are writing to request your help.  If you would like to judge please see below for the specifics. New Agents & PA's, this is a great opportunity to learn how to help your 4-H'ers complete record books.


The dates for judging are: Project Record Judging – April 21-22 and Portfolio - April 24-25 2023. Our judges are one of the reasons that our 4-H youth can excel and the judge’s constructive comments help to improve our 4-H’ers record keeping skills. This is why we are asking for your help. We need 20-25 judges for each day of project record judging and 10 judges for Portfolio judging.  Judges will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis and all registrations for judging must be entered online no later than March 27, 2023.  Judges must be registered/approved 4-H Volunteers.  


I anticipate we will be able to complete all of our judging during the allotted time so please come ready to work.   We will provide lodging and lunch for you. If you sign up to judge and find out that you can no longer judge, please give us at least a one-week notice if at all possible.  If you do not give this notice, you will be invoiced for the charges (lodging, meals, snacks etc.) that are incurred during the time for which you registered to help. Please understand that we are not trying to discourage anyone from judging, we just need a firm commitment, in order to assure we have enough judges and that we are good stewards of our resources. We totally understand emergencies that come up.

 

4-H Volunteers who are judging:  Also – in order to judge we need to have all of our judges registered in 4HOnline.  I anticipate most of you are however if you are not, please work with your 4-H Agent to register or go here: https://v2.4honline.com/#/user/sign-in


If you are already registered then you are all set. Go to the link below to register for judging. Please note that registering in 4HOnline using the above link does NOT register you to judge – see link below for that.  Google Registration is required.

 

If you are available to help, please mark the dates for judging on your calendar.  Your participation in this process will benefit the 4-H'ers as well as yourself. 

 

Below is a schedule so that you can check your calendar. For those who can stay for more than one day, we will provide lodging. You will also have some meals on your own.  If you are only able to help judge one day, we suggest Saturday for Project, but we welcome help on any of the date selections below! We will do an orientation on the first day.
