State Show Entry Deadlines

Submitted by Lexie Hayes

Entries for the Kansas State Fair Grand Drive (4-H/FFA youth livestock show) are due July 15. All animals must be entered directly through the state fair using the online system, which is ShoWorks. The link may be found on the Grand Drive page of the Kansas State Fair website. Only online entries will be accepted. Families who state nominated livestock this year should have their KSU Nomination # ready when they begin the entry process. All exhibitors will also need to be prepared to submit their YQCA number. Late entries will be accepted until July 25, with a late fee of $25/head. No entries will be accepted after July 25. For more information, visit https://www.kansasstatefair.com/p/participate/grand-drive.

Continuing this year, county agents and ag teachers will receive instructions from the state fair regarding how to login to the ShoWorks system and approve the entries for exhibitors from their county/school.

Entries for KJLS will be due by August 15, also using ShoWorks. However, they are separate shows, so families will need to create a new account when entering KJLS. All exhibitors must register online, using the link found on the KJLS website: https://kjls.org/. Families who state nominated livestock this year will need their KSU Nomination #. All youth need to be prepared to submit their YQCA number as well. Late entries will be accepted until August 31, but the cost will be double the listed original entry fee amount.
