Delegates will be accepted on a
first-come, first-served basis until the specific specie and/or workshop limit
is reached. Indiana 4-H members in their freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior
year of high school are eligible for the workshop. Each county may enroll multiple delegates per specie: aquatic science, beef, dairy, goat (dairy and meat),
dog and cat, horse, poultry, sheep, rabbit, swine and vet science--large animal. A delegate
may attend more than once, as long as they register for a different specie group
each time.
The objectives for the Animal Sciences Workshop for Youth are as follows:
- To develop life skills through interaction with others.
- To teach the scientific principles of Animal Sciences to young people.
- To prepare delegates to assist and/or teach others in their local
communities what they learned from taught by Purdue faculty and staff
- To increase awareness of Animal Industry Issues.
- To inform participants about careers in animal agriculture and educational
opportunities at Purdue University.
