Submitted by Lexie Hayes

The 2017 Kansas 4-H Livestock Sweepstakes will be held August 19-20 on the K-State campus in Manhattan, KS. This is the corresponding date to previous years. The 4-H Livestock Sweepstakes event includes the state 4-H livestock judging contest, meat judging contest, livestock skillathon, and livestock quiz bowl. Members may participate in one or all of the state contests.  The members who will represent Kansas at the national 4-H contest for each of these events will be selected during the livestock sweepstakes weekend.

The deadline to enter will be August 1. All entries must be made by the local Extension Office using Cvent. Rules and the Coach's Guide are posted on the Youth Livestock Program website, under "4-H Livestock Sweepstakes." Please read these materials closely, as there are changes to the event schedule and rules for 2017.
