2)  Every word on your posters need to be readable from 10 feet away. 
3)  Parents and others may watch the member's presentation if the member wants them in the room.
4)  Don't forget to ask your audience if they have any questions.
5)  Always repeat the question back to the judge.
6)  Practice, practice, practice.
7)  End with a conclusion and your sources.

Our 4-H members volunteered at Wyatt House and created special handmade Valentine cards for residents to mail to loved ones.  Plenty of extra Valentines and special notes were left for the residents to enjoy on Valentine’s Day!
