4-H Judging season will kick off again in January for local students with contests typically on the weekends. 4-H Judging Coach Lynn Shimmin has more details:
“We will be ramping up our seasons, starting in January for most of the weekends, Saturdays especially throughout January, February, March, and April. We attend contests throughout the state and the kids can learn to evaluate animals.”
Students can contact the University of Illinois Extension office in Monmouth and the first meeting will be held on January 7th. Practices will begin shortly after the first meeting.
