• The Hartford Fair Entry Portal can be found by visiting: http://hartfordfair.fairentry.com
• Please be sure to review the Hartford Fair Premium Book at: https://www.hartfordfair.com/premiumbook to ensure you know which Classes and Lots you will be making entries for before you start that process.
• All 4-H families must use their 4-HOnline Credentials to log into FairEntry. If a member creates a new account in FairEntry, they will be unable to make entries in Junior Fair Departments as those departments require them to be enrolled in the appropriate 4-H project in order to make entries.
• All FFA members making entries in livestock departments will submit their own entries this year. Those entering projects in the FFA Building will do so through their advisor.
  Please make sure that you add all entries to each exhibitor in your family before you submit the entries and continue to the payment portal.
• NEW FOR 2024: All youth planning to participate in Showmanship MUST make an entry for their Showmanship class. Even if a member isn’t sure about whether they want to do Showmanship or not, they should go ahead and make an entry for it.
