4-H Exhibit Judging

Today we had General Exhibit Judging for our local 4-H chapter. Our club, The Eagles, is studying Florida History which allowed us to have a lot of freedom in our exhibit choices. Benjamin decided to do a 3-D rendering of Castillo De San Marcos. It is actually the oldest fort in the US, located in St. Augustine Florida. He did a great job, with a little help from dad, and ended up with a blue ribbon.

Mollie and Benjamin both submitted an Earth Weaving project we did at one of our meetings. It's basically a wall hanging made with weaved twine and natural elements we found in our backyard. After questioning by the judges, they both ended up with blue ribbons for those as well.

I'm so proud of both of them! Their projects will be on display in the 4-H pavilion at the South Florida Fair where they will be judged against other exhibits in their same category. They have the potential to receive ribbons for that, too. I'm sure I won't be able to help myself and will just have to do a post on the outcome at the Fair...stay tuned for more!
