Gold 'n' Grouse 4-H Club holds judging practice

The meeting was called to order around 6:30 p.m. and roll call was taken. Members said the pledges and were asked to sign the thank you cards for Liz Wood located at the back of the room. 

The president gave an informative presentation on livestock judging. Livestock judging is now an official event at the Bonner County Fair, which all members can participate in. ln order to practice what we learned, we split up into groups and judged classes of coats, shoes, mixing bowls and dog park animals. 

While most of the members participated in the practice judging, a group of those interested in a more detailed explanation of livestock judging split off and practiced with Kami Williams in a separate area. 

Everyone gave one set of oral reasons to an older member or adult before the meeting was called to order again. 

A motion was made to wear Hawaiian-themed clothing at the next meeting and was approved by popular vote. The meeting was adjourned around 7:30 p.m. Dues were collected at the front after the meeting.
