Please remember to send your records to the Judges Records and Training Chair so that you can stay accredited. You will notice on the judges list this year that we have not heard from quite a few of our judges. It is up to the discretion of the show judges’ chair whether they can be a part of a judging team. Please consult your judging handbook for additional information

All downloads are provided as .PDF (Personal Document Format) files and will require Adobe® Acrobat Reader™ for viewing and printing. Adobe Acrobat Reader can be downloaded FREE from the Adobe Website.
