District Photography Deadline Approaching

Hi, Everyone ;-)

Just reminding you that Willie must have any photos that you plan to send to District by 5:00 pm on Friday. If you decide to enter photos that were not in the County Contest don't forget to put the new photos on a CD and give it to Willie as well. :-)

Also, you will need to sign up at 4-H Online, if you have not already done so, and register there as well. ;-)

HAVE FUN! :-)

Blessings,
Wendy

District Contest Rules are posted.

Many of you have been confused about the District Photography Contest. The District Contest will follow the state rules; however, the District Office has sent out the following exceptions to the State rules.

http://cherokee-co.tamu.edu/publications/District%205%20Rules.pdf

Those of you who wish to enter the District Contest will have to do so on 4-H Connect. 4-H Connect is an online data base. First you will have to create a family profile, once this is done you will be able to add each child in your family that is over 8 years of age to that profile. Then I as the agent will have to get online and certify your children as official members. Then you can begin registering them for District/State Contests and Events. If you have any question please refer to the 4-H Connect Instructions Sheet.


There is a $5.00 per child registration fee for their first entry. Additional photos may be entered at $0.50 per photo per child.

Still have questions? Please contact the 4-H Agent at (903) 683-5416
