COUNTY CONTEST INFORMATION
Judging will be held by out-of-county judges for categories that have competition.
If there is no competition in a category, Kaci will provide feedback for District.
First place books at the county level advance to judging on the District level.
If your book did not place first in the category you entered, and you have a strong project in another category that there is not an entry, then you may change categories to go to district.
