Categories for 2019 include 4-H in Action, Nature's Beauty and the new category for 2019 (only), Sports. Sports photography is big business! Use your ace photography skills to capture the excitement of the action at a sporting event. Whether it’s on the track or football field, or in the pool, gym or ballpark, we want to see those photographs. Be creative! We will be reasonably all inclusive as to what can be considered a sporting event, but tiddlywinks might be pushing it a bit. Entries will be due via email in May and all participants must be current 4-H members to participate. Contact April Bowman at awbowman@ncsu.edu or 336-703-2855 for additional information.
