The Theme!
The 4-H
Festival theme this year is “4-H on the Silver Screen”. There
are lots of possibilities with this theme so be as creative as
you like!
Old Favorites are Back Again!
We know how hard 4-H members work to keep their stalls in
tip-top shape. To thank you yet again for all your effort, we
are bringing back the Herdsmanship Spotlight Program. Individual
members seen going above and beyond the call of stall duty will
be recognized on a daily basis. These names will be entered into
a draw for a special award at the end of the 4-H Festival.
The PNE Judging Competition is here again in 2012! We are
accepting entries for the competition from District Key leaders.
If you are a member and are interested in joining this
competition, please contact your club leader for information on
entering. Once again, we will be awarding wonderful prizes
including a trip to Agribition, and almost $2,000 in cash
prizes!
The PNE is excited to once again host the Speak
and Show Competition! Members are invited to attend the PNE from

New
This Year!
BC 4-H has paired up with the

The PNE Amazing Race is
back in 2012 after being a very successful and fun event in
2011! It will start at the Agrodome and teams will race through
the PNE grounds to try to be the first team across the finish
line. The Scarecrow contest is back this year! Clubs are
encouraged to work together to create original and unique
scarecrows that will be judged. Be as creative as you like!
These Special Events, along with the classic 4-H Feud, will
ensure that the 2012 4-H Festival is more fun than ever!
