Working Demonstrations
Pre-registration requested by April 19, 2019
Members giving working demonstrations do not prepare a talk on the topic. Instead, they select a skill in which they
have considerable experience — one that they can demonstrate for 15 to 30 minutes. They sit at an assigned table
and work, more or less continuously. When an audience member makes an inquiry, the demonstrator describes
what they are doing and continues the conversation as long as the person has an interest. When the onlooker
leaves, the demonstrator continues working until another person makes an inquiry. This type of demonstration is
good for fairs, displays, in shopping centers or at special events.
1. Working demonstrators should bring enough materials to work for approx. 30 minutes. They do not talk continually but
must be able to engage the audience in conversation and answer questions during the demonstration.
4PUBLIC SPEAKING
Pre-registration requested by April 19, 2019
Horse Public Speaking
Juniors (ages 8-13) and Seniors (ages 14-18)
Subject must pertain to the horse industry. Speeches, not appropriately related to the horse industry, can
be disqualified at the discretion of the judge(s). No visual aids may be used. Contestants may use notes.
However, excessive use of notes may be counted against the contestant. This will be at the discretion of
the judge(s). During the event, the contestants may introduce themselves by name, county, and speech
topic. Senior speeches should be 7-10 minutes in length. Three points will be deducted from the total
score on each judge's score sheet for every minute (or fraction of a minute) under 7 minutes or over 10
minutes. No points will be deducted from Jr. speeches for time. Contestants should cite their major
references after the conclusion of their speech. This time will not be counted in the allotted time. The state
