03/10/21 4-H Email Blast: District 10 4-H Roundup Contest Information

 

District 10 4-H Fall Roundup Contests

Hey all!

We wanted to pass on updates about the 2021 District 10 4-H Spring Roundup Contests.  There have been some adjustments to the schedule and to some of the locations.  We have tried to summarize them for your convenience below!

  • General Information:

    • What is this? District 10 4-H Roundup is a clustered set of contests where youth from all 21 counties in District 10 4-H compete against each other.  There is a D10 Fall Roundup and a D10 Spring Roundup.  A few of the contests have a maximum number of teams/participants that are allowed to compete – for those contests, we have a qualifying County Contest where youth must participate and/or make a certain placing to move up to the District Level.
    • Disclaimer: these dates and locations are subject to change based on local health mandates for the safety of all participants
    • Date: April 20-24, 2021 (tentatively)
      Location: Fredericksburg, TX (generally unless otherwise noted in the packet and/or virtual depending on contest)
  • Contests included (rules for each contest are available in the Guide):

Please see the list of contests below, dates and locations (if outside of Fredericksburg) have been noted to the best of our ability at this time.  If there are additional forms required at the time of registration, they should be linked below the contest.

Have a great week and let us know if you have any questions!
