Reminders:

  • Each 4-H member needs to turn in a record sheet and worksheet to exhibit their Utility Goat project at the fair
  • To complete the project without exhibiting you must turn in a no-exhibit record sheet
  • Grade is based on the grade you were in when you enrolled in 4-H for the 2023 year
  • Answers to the worksheet are found in the Goat Resource Manual (Ohio State) (one resource manual is provided per family the first year a family member takes a Goat Project)
  • If you exhibit an animal poster project you need to complete the General 4-H Record Sheet and turn it in at judging check-in in order to have your poster judged (this is required even if you plan to exhibit an animal in that project at the county fair)
