The Virtual Companion Animal Challenge offers a variety of 4-H companion animal contests that don’t require live animals, including demonstration, essay, art, photography, cat trivia and dog trivia. Youth have the opportunity to display their companion animal knowledge through these contests both as individuals and as part of a team.
Lancaster County 4-H Council will pay contest entry fees for Lancaster County 4-H’ers. Prior to submitting an entry form, save a copy and submit to the Lancaster County Extension office or email a copy to 4-H Assistant Calvin DeVries at cdevries2@unl.edu by April 1 at 5 p.m. to have entry fees paid by Lancaster County 4-H Council.
T-shirts may be ordered at the cost of each participant for $15. More information and online entry forms are at https://4h.unl.edu/companion-animal-challenge.
