Virginia Beef Industry Council and Rockingham County Extension are proud to bring you the 2013 Virginia Beef Ambassador Contest.

This year the contest will be held at the Virginia Beef Expo in Harrisonburg, VA on Friday, April 19th. This contest is open to ALL interested youth ages 12-20.

Participants are not required to have a background in agriculture or own beef cattle. The purpose of the project is to gain knowledge of the beef industry and to provide an opportunity for youth to educate consumers and other youth about beef nutrition, food safety, and stewardship practices of the beef industry.

We greatly appreciate the support of this project and the Checkoff dollars from our Virginia Beef Producers.

Please find the attached rules and regulations and don’t hesitate to let me know if you have any questions –

Thanks!
Dara
