McDowell 4-H Livestock Judging Team
Hard work and dedication has certainly paid off for the McDowell County 4-H Livestock Judging team. Since June, the team has traveled over 4,000 miles to destinations such as Oklahoma State University for a judging camp, which included several stops along the way. Some of these stops included Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina where the team visited farms and had the opportunity to sharpen their judging skills. They also competed at the State 4-H Livestock Judging Contest in Raleigh on July 27, 2018.
At the State 4-H Contest, the team judged cattle, sheep, swine, goats, and gave oral reasons to explain their reasoning behind the placement.
In the end, the Senior McDowell County 4-H Livestock Judging Team had the highest combined points and was awarded the High Overall Senior Livestock Judging Team in the State, with Hannah Ellis being highest overall individual.
