Carter County Junior Livestock Show
AMBASSADORS
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Ambassador program is to create a team of exemplary young people who work both collectively and individually to increase awareness of the Carter County Junior Livestock Show and its significance through community service and involvement while upholding a positive image. Ambassadors will benefit from the program in the form of leadership development, agricultural advocacy, and communication skills.
WHO CAN APPLY
Applicants must be in 9th through 12th grade, exhibiting livestock at the Carter County Junior Livestock Show, and must be in good standing with their school.
EXPECTATIONS
Those that are chosen as Ambassadors will be expected to show integrity, respect and positive morale as they are a direct representation of the CCJLS.
The Ambassador team will have various duties, including but not limited to:
community service (such as ringing the Salvation Army bell during the
holidays), promotion of fundraising (such as approaching potential
sponsors for the Boots & Bowties Ball), promotion of the show (such as
putting together a presentation for Rotary Club), participation in a video for the Boots & Bowties Ball, setting up for the Boots & Bowties Ball, media training with The Noble Research Institute, handing out ribbons at the show (when not showing), etc. We understand that schedules are busy and each Ambassador may not be able to attend every event, but your attendance is very important, and we do expect you to make your best efforts to be there.
If you have any questions regarding the following application, or the
Ambassador Program, please contact Emma Rutledge at emmajorutledge@gmail.com. Alyssa Allen will also be
assisting with the ambassador program as well.
