Holstein Canada is pleased to announce that Paul Trapp will judge the National Black and White Holstein Show in 2022. In 2019, exhibitors elected Mr. Trapp to judge the Black & White Holstein Show at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair (RAWF). Due to the pandemic, this event has been cancelled for the past two years; however, Holstein Canada is hoping to hold its National Shows at the RAWF this year. 2022 will mark the 100th anniversary of the RAWF.
The vote determining the judge for the Red & White National Show will take place in January. As a reminder, exhibitors from the last three National Fall Shows elect the judges. Each owner who has exhibited an animal in the past three years has one vote.
New for this year: Exhibitors will also elect an alternate judge in the event one of the selected judges is unable to fulfill their duties.
