Interview Judging Information – August 1, 2024 9 AM- 3 PM

Absentee Interview Form – If you are unable to attend Interview Judging but would like your project exhibited and judged send this form filled out with your project and record book.

Use the Signup Genius links to plan your interview(s) times.  ALL the signups will appear as tabs to select, there are 12 tabs to choose from.  Please make sure you are on the CORRECT department signup before choosing your times.  This can be difficult to see on a mobile device.  Each signup tab is for a single judge that will be interviewing the projects listed.  If you have more than one project in a single department, you can schedule back-to-back interviews.  

Department listings can be found in the State Fair Exhibit Requirements/ Fairbook. Interview slots begin at 9 AM, judging break for lunch is scheduled at 11:30.
If members would like to have their projects evaluated but are unable to attend, they are invited to use the Absentee Interview Form and include it with their project and record book for evaluation during the
Interview Judging Day.  Please make sure all items are labeled with name. 

All interviews will take place at the Boulder County Fairgrounds Exhibit Building, which is located on the West side of the fairgrounds.  Please use the West or South parking lots and enter through the corresponding doors.  Find your check-in table and wait or continue to your interview. Open Class judging will also be taking place so please make sure you are in the right place.

WANTED – Teen Clerks!
Looking for an opportunity to help at the Boulder County Fair? Consider being a Teen Clerk on Interview Judging Day! No experience necessary!
Throughout the day, 4-H members will be bringing their projects to the Exhibit Building on the Fairgrounds.  We need Teen Clerks – ages 13 and up – to help make the event run smoothly. 

Teen clerk responsibilities are:
-Attend Interview Judging all day (9:00 AM- 5:00 PM or until your project area has completed assigning awards)
-Act as assistant to the Superintendent
-Check-in member’s projects
-Help arrange the judged projects in their proper display area at the conclusion of judging
-Confirm ribbons are accurate and attached
-Be helpful, courteous, and inviting as participants await their interviews

Lunch and snacks will be provided. Teen clerks will have time to interview for their own projects. 

Scheduling time will be between the Superintendent and the clerk.

Serving as a Teen Clerk qualifies as a 4-h community service activity and is a great way tot help the organization. Time spent as a Teen Clerk counts toward National Honor Society community service.

There are plenty of project areas in need of a teen clerk.  If you are interested, please send an email to Jeannie Torres,  jetorres@bouldercounty.org.  Being a Teen Clerk is a fun way to kick off the Boulder County Fair activities!
