State Show Entry Deadlines Approaching

Submitted by Lexie Hayes

Kansas State Fair Grand Drive Logo

Entries for the Kansas State Fair Grand Drive (4-H/FFA youth livestock show) are due July 15. A complete nomination does not constitute entry; it only makes animals eligible. All exhibitors and animals must be entered directly through the state fair using the online system, which is ShoWorks. 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 entry submissions will be accepted until July 25, with a late fee. No entries will be accepted after July 25. For more information, visit 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, or use the new ShoWorks Passport App. All exhibitors must register online, using the link found on the KJLS website: http://www.kjls.net/. Families will need their KSU Nomination # and YQCA certificate numbers to enter KJLS as well. Late entries will be accepted until August 25, but will cost double the listed original entry fee amount.
