Special local Show-Within-A-Show classes are available

Classes for each Show-Within-A-Show are established by the local and regional clubs which present each Show-Within-A-Show.

Judging is performed by members of the club using the 100-point basis as described below, unless different criteria are established by a particular club.

For each Show-Within-A-Show class that has multiple sub-classes, a First Place award and two Awards of Excellence will be presented for each sub-class.

A Best of Show from all of the sub-classes is also presented. Best of Show award winners are invited to participate in the pageantry of our traditional parade of winners, driving up to the stage to receive their awards.

First Place and Award of Excellence winners are presented their awards at the stage when their names are announced.
