Teachers, For schools competing in Area II - please let your students know that we may have a class of bulls tomorrow to judge. We will still have a class of heifers & 8 heifers for Keep / Cull, but there may also be a class of bulls for placing (for Area II only.) I'm sorry for this late notice, but I wanted you to know so you could let your students know. Don't forget the following for each student: pencils (2) blank paper clip boards warm clothes (remind students to wear bring a jacket). I am attaching a copy of the registration spreadsheet for both areas. Please let me know if you are planning to compete, but your school is not listed, so I can make sure we have scan trons for your students. See you tomorrow.
