New - Entomology Collection Contest
The Texas 4-H and Youth Development Program and the Entomology
Department at Texas A&M is pleased to announce a new invitational contest
that will be held at the 2014 Texas 4-H Roundup. The Invitational Entomology
Collection Contest is open to all intermediate and senior 4-H members. The
collection contest allows youth to learn more about insects and arthropods
through collection, preservation and identification. Youth learn how to
properly identify insects and arthropods to common name, arrange them in neat
and organized, professional insect collection, and learn proper preservation
tools to ensure that their collections can last for years. All collections must
be complete and submitted to the individual's respected county or district
office no later than May 9, 2014. For more information on the event
please visit the links below.
