The categories will be the same as SFR, but with the addition of the Style Show category. Participants will check in at 11:00 a.m. and given their judging order. Lunch will be served to participants only. Participants should be prepared to deliver a 30 second presentation of their outfit and answer any question from the judges. (Please refer to the State Fashion Revue guidelines for reference at http://www.ca4h.org/Programs/Events/SFD/SFR/.) Parents will not be able to stay during judging due to space and schedule constraints but are encouraged to return to join us at 2:00 pm for the fashion show.
