Kansas State Fair Grand Drive Entries Open
The entry deadline for the Kansas State Fair Grand Drive is July 15th. The Grand Drive is the youth livestock show held annually as part of the Kansas State Fair. Please remember that a complete nomination does NOT constitute entry. Nomination is just the first step to make market animals and commercial females eligible for the state shows. Youth who plan to exhibit in the market or breeding livestock division (beef cattle, swine, sheep, meat goats) must submit an official entry through the Kansas State Fair entry system, as well as pay the appropriate entry fees.
Exhibitors may enter online or submit an entry form that is postmarked by July 15th. Youth will need to submit a W-9 as part of the entry process. Also, continuing from 2017, an extension agent or ag teacher signature is no longer required on the entry form. Once all entries have been processed, extension agents and ag teachers will electronically approve all of the members who have entered under their county/chapter.
Rules, reminders, and entry information may be found on the Kansas State Fair website, under the Grand Drive tab.
