Proud of you guys! I competed in the 1990s. Still use the lessons Meat Judging taught me (teamwork, thinking on your feet, defending your decisions). Hope it serves you well in the future.
CONGRATULATIONS to all participants…and also to those parents that supported their children by teaching them responsibilities, providing guidance and many hours of meetings,lessons on animal husbandry, etc. These achievements DO NOT happen in a vacuum. IT TAKES A VILLAGE!
Congratulations. My kids did Meat Judging back in the 1990’s so I know what hard work you had to put into this to get where you are. Good job.
congratulations to this entire team. A big shout out to Jessica and Hannah! Way to continue to succeed!! Proud of both you young ladies!!
Way to go, Tucker! Well done
