Two New Youth Contests Announced for Commonwealth Classic Beef Show

Cattle Fitting and Cattle Sales are two new contests as part of the Commonwealth Classic on Saturday, March 29.  The rules and entry forms for these contests will be posted on the youth livestock webpage (www.ext.vt.edu/youthlivestock).  Entries for both contests are due on Friday, March 14.  Please try to use the writable PDF version of the entry form, which can easily be submitted by completing the form and pressing the submit button located on the form. 

In order to compete in the cattle fitting contest youth must exhibit at the Commonwealth Classic; however, the Cattle Sales Contest is open to any Virginia 4-H or FFA member.  Contests will be held at different times during the morning of March 29th; the final start times for each contest will be determined based upon entry numbers.
