The 21th Annual JWCC Fall Invitational Livestock Judging Contest, sponsored by the
JWCC Ag Alumni, ADM Animal Nutrition, MoorMan’s ShowTec and the JWCC
Livestock Evaluation Club is scheduled for Friday, September 20. The event will be held at
the JWCC Agricultural Education Center located 4 miles west of the junction of highways 104
and 107. Final Registration and check-in is from 8:00 – 8:30 a.m. Contest begins with
welcome and instructions at 9:00 a.m. and the goal is to have the contest results before 1:00 p.m.
This year the contest will consist of 7-9 classes in total, including cattle, swine, sheep, and goats
ranging from 1 – 3 classes per species. There will be a questions class of 10 questions for one
class in each of the species. The contest will score for each school: 2 teams in the Varsity
Division and 2 teams in the Junior Varsity Division (four contestants per team, 16 students total).
Additional students are allowed to participate; However, only 2 teams per school will be given
awards. This year the contest will be a 4 count 4. Meaning all 4 members scores will count
towards team totals.
Scoring for the contest will be through a scantron judging program this year. Please have your
students bring #2 pencils and clipboards. NO INK PENS! With the help of the scantron
scoring we hope to be able to score cards quickly so that scores are available to advisors.
Advisors can also find results on judgingcard.com. Once the judging portion of the contest is
completed the plan is to give the official placings followed by an Awards Presentation.
