As you begin the judging process…•Always show excitement to meet the 4-H’er and model good communication skills•Spend some time looking through the write-up to recognize their hard work but always focus on the 4-H’er…a balancing act•4-H’ers should be able to respond to these three questions:
1. What was your exhibit goal?2. How do you go about working toward that goal?3. What were the most important things you
learned working on your goal?
