4-H News and Opportunities
Judging Requirement Changes for Food & Nutrition Projects
Participants taking Food & Nutrition projects will see a change in the judging requirements this year. All Food &
Nutrition Projects will complete a skill station along with the judging interview. The Skills Station will be where the
participant will apply knowledge learned from their project and the MyPlate information that can be found in their
book, their county 4-H office, or online at www.choosemyplate.gov. The website is an extensive review of the
information to study to increase their knowledge.
Also, new this year, participants will provide a project portfolio that is project specific and is used to enhance a
conversation between the member and a judge about activities the member completed within the project. The
participant will be responsible for bringing a 3-pronged folder or binder. Participants will create a maximum of one
page (one-sided only) per “activity area” or “interest area” as designated in the front of their project books. Ideas
for these pages include journaling, a timeline, and photos taken during their project, or any other format that would
illustrate the work and knowledge of the participant. Each page could be different or can be a combination of styles
allowing the 4-H’er to reflect on their learning experience. This portfolio will take the place of poster/food displays.
Participants will not be required to bring any prepared food for judging.

4-H Camps Cell Phone PolicyFOSTERING INDEPENDENCE: When campers have cell phones at camp, this can cause trust issues. When children come to camp, you are temporarily transferring their primary care from you as their parent to the camp staff. This is one of the growth-producing, yet challenging aspects of camp. As children learn to trust other caring adults, they grow and learn, little by little, to solve some of their own challenges. We believe this emerging independence is one of the greatest benefits of camp. It is one important way your child develops greater resilience and develops self-confidence – important life skills. When campers feel they must have the ability to call home, this essentially means they have not made this transition. We can assure you that if your child is experiencing a challenge in their adjustment to camp, the 4-H educator will contact you. If your child expresses concern about being away from you, you can help by sharing with them that there is always someone at camp available to help them. They will have access to trusted activity leaders, cabin counselors, camp directors and the medical staff. We respectfully ask you to consider that if you send a cell phone to camp with your camper “in case they need you”, you are essentially communicating to your child that you as a parent have not truly come to peace with the notion of them being away from you and that you have reservations regarding our ability to care for your child. If you don’t trust us, your children certainly won’t. VALUABLES: Cell phones are expensive and can get lost or stolen. In addition, the physical camp environment is not kind to such items. HIDING CELL PHONES: We appreciate that most families will honor our request and support our reasoning for not bringing cell phones to camp. We also recognize that some families may feel that hiding a cell phone in camper luggage is OK because their child won’t get homesick or won’t abuse the opportunity. Why we ask for your support: if your child brings a cell phone and passes the phone to another child to use, it can have and has had a negative effect on the camp experience of the other child and their family. We ask that you are considerate of ALL camp children and respect other families as they help foster their child’s independence. TEXTING: We also understand that for many teens, and increasing numbers of younger children, texting is a favored means of communication. We certainly are not against this form of communication outside of camp. At camp, however, another goal of the camp experience is to connect with other people face to face and nurture the art of interpersonal communication. Texting friends outside of camp, during the camp session, impede the ability of campers’ freedom to truly benefit from this special aspect of camp and the process of building these new friendships. By leaving the cell phones at home, this does not become an issue. COUNSELOR CELL PHONES: Counselor cell phones will be collected at the beginning of camp.
Cell Phone Policy Agreement Form
• Campers are not allowed to bring cell phones to camp.• If a cell phone is brought with a camper it will be held by the Camp Director until the end of camp.
I understand that I am not to bring a cell phone to camp.

In this technology age it is difficult for youth to not be in contact via cell phone. Camp is a unique environment. We are trying to help youth develop life skills at camp including independence and self-reliance. Oftentimes homesickness, which is a normal part of a week at camp, can be worsened by talking to mom and dad. We respect and appreciate the wonderful relationship youth and families have, but if our campers are to enjoy camp fully they must to able to develop this independence. If there is an emergency or we are concerned about the youth’s well-being, parents will be contacted. I have read the above cell phone policy and agree to the guidelines stated, including that the cell phone will be taken to be returned at the conclusion of Camp if the policy is violated. I understand that if there is an emergency I may contact the camp at the phone numbers listed in the camp packet.

Livestock Requirement Summary
Still Project Judging will be held on Tuesday, July 9 with registration starting at 4:30 p.m. at Union Local Middle School. Specific project times TBD. Completion of a 4-H project may be achieved in one of three methods. Members must choose one of the following methods for evaluation, based on the completion of project guidelines and knowledge gained.
County-wide 4-H Still Project Judging or Livestock Skillathon All members are encouraged to participate in traditional judging. All non-animal projects are evaluated at Still Project Judging. All animal projects eligible for exhibition at the Belmont County Fair are evaluated at Livestock Skillathon. All other animal projects (i.e. dogs, cats, etc.) are evaluated at Still Project Judging. Participants are eligible for county awards and state fair participation.
4-H Make-up Judging Any member who is unable to participate in the county-wide 4-H Still Project Judging due to personal conflict may participate in 4-H Make-up Judging. Participants will be ineligible for county awards and state fair participation. Participants must contact the Extension office to sign-up and submit a letter to the Extension office, stating the reason in which they are unable to participate in county judging, prior to attending Make-up Judging.
Advisor Approved Completion A club Advisor may evaluate a member’s project(s) based on project guidelines and knowledge gained and deem the project complete. 4-H projects completed must be separate and different from those carried in other organizations, for a grade or credits, such as FFA, FCCLA, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and school, including industrial arts class, science fairs, etc. Award Selection: Each member participating in project judging will receive a project grade based on project guidelines outlined in this document. Grades will be A (Excellent), B ( Satisfactory) and C (Needs Improvement). County awards will be awarded as follows: No ties for any still project placing. Judge(s) must select a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in every project. The only exception would be if there were not three projects to place or there were not three projects with an A grade, whereby there would only be a 1st or 1st or 2nd placing. If two or more still projects score the same amount of points in a project, it is up to the discretion of the judge(s) to place one project over another. Still projects must earn an A grade on their project to compete in the Ohio State Fair or to receive a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place. The judges will be provided a list of members eligible in the project areas for the state fair. It will be up to the judge(s) discretion to select who earns the Ohio State Fair opportunity based on the project scoring criteria and their joint decision. The judge(s) will also provide a list of alternates in case the first person selected to participate at the Ohio State Fair elects to not participate in the competition. First place winners will be considered by the judge(s) for a trophy category for their project if eligible. If there are both a Junior and Senior Division 1st place winner in the same project and only one trophy, then only one of the 1st place winners will receive a trophy in that project. Trophy winners will be determined by the judge(s). If there are several projects grouped together, then only one 1st place winner will be selected as the trophy recipient by the judge(s).
Clothing and Textiles Projects *Denotes State Fair Project FAIR: Display garment(s) made. JUDGING: Along with completed project book and one page report on what you learned, MEMBERS MUST BRING PATTERN TO JUDGING.

You will need to contact the Extension office after July 1, to set up a time for your interview appointment. If you wish to exhibit your animal at the county fair, you will need to participate in the Livestock Skillathon. This will consist of the completion of an interview, four skill stations, a project book evaluation, and a station to register for the fair. The judge will be asking you about the things that you learned this year with your project. You MUST bring your completed up-to-date project book (which also includes a one page report* and up-to-date feed records with you to the skillathon. Each specie will be evaluated on the same information this year. It can all be found in your livestock resource handbooks for each specie. *All youth are required to bring a one page report as part of their project judging requirements for each project. This one page report should be included in the project book (Project Interest Summary). And describes what the youth has learned while taking this project this year. **Any project book that a youth brings that is missing the front cover or has been marked as reviewed a previous year, will be ineligible for judging. Book judging alone is worth 100 points of your overall grade. All species should know the following for your skill stations in 2019:
1. How to read a medical insert. 2. How to read a feed label. 3. Breeds of your species. 4. Parts of your species.
