Hi Families!

Thanks to all that have gotten your FairEntries done! A few reminders as tomorrow is the deadline…

• Here is a video on completing the FairEntries since I will be unavilable tomorrow. FairEntry made a few changes since I made this video, but it is all generally the same
  • Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIrz7PyXYrI&t=1s
  • FairEntry Link: http://henry-countyohio.fairentry.com/
    • Enter using the 4-HOnline “Green Button” Log-on
  • BE SURE YOU HAVE SIGNED UP FOR SHOWMANSHIP! I’m seeing LOTS of entries that do not have Showmanship Added!
    • You can verify if you have/have not signed up by looking at the FairEntry Confirmation email.
    • PLEASE don’t email me asking if you’re signed up! Check out your emails, if it’s not there, just log back in to FairEntry & sign up!
• Thanks to the families that hopped on the New Camp Family Zoom last night! We had some great questions about what to expect, so be sure to check out the recording. There WILL be one more reminder email going out on Monday, so stay tuned for that!
