Contest and Learning Opportunity - If interested, please email Cory,
this is a team event of 3-4 members of the same age division.
This
contest helps participants increase their knowledge of basic nutrition,
consumer information, food and kitchen safety, food preparation skills
and storage, and nutrition and health. This contest will follow the
rules and procedures listed in the Texas 4-H Quiz Bowl Study Guide, 4-H
3-2.030. The State 4-H Food & Nutrition Quiz Bowl Study Guide
should be utilized for support information. These documents will be
released by the beginning of September and will be posted at this
website. If there are significant changes from the State FDRM unit
related to NQB, we will update this letter and re-send to the counties
after we receive the information.
