To ensure an appropriate evaluator-to-presenter ratio, we are modifying our presenter registration process. We will open Evaluator registrations in February. Presenter registration will be contingent on the number of evaluators already registered. Starting on March 5, 2025, and continuing every Wednesday through April 16, 2025, at 6 PM, we will release presenter slots for youth participants based on the number of evaluators we have registered. Registration for presenter slots will operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

Virtual Regional Presentations Procedure

Two-hour time slots available on select days from April 4 to April 14.

After qualifying with a blue or gold award at a County 4-H Presentations event (either in-person or virtual), youth may register to present at Regional Presentations during a 2-hour time block offered between April  4 – April 14. Time blocks are first-come, first-served.

Procedures:

After registering, youth presenters will receive a confirmation for their time block with a zoom.us meeting link.

During their scheduled time block, youth will log on with a computer/tablet or smart phone and present in front of a camera/webcam. They may use poster boards and props (if the category permits these) or using digital slides by “sharing my screen.” All requirements from the 4-H Presentation Manual - Revised January 2021 apply.

Evaluators will enter their scores and comments digitally, which will be sent to the “tally room.” Evaluations forms will be emailed to presenters along with their placing.

Award certificates and pins will be sent to County offices with  State Presentation Awards.
