2018 TCYS Updates: Contests & Baked Goods Reminders

TCYS Contest Entries are posted and can be accessed on the TCYS Contest Page (link)

• Entry deadline for 4-H members is Wednesday, November 22^nd, (historically the County Offices close early on this day)
• Entries will not be accepted the day of the contests this year – they must all be entered online
• For Food Challenge – the team entry is $30, please have each team member and parent sign the entry form; instead of age put their grades; contact information needs to be the team coach’s information.
• For CDM – I have asked TCYS if we can push back that time to allow more youth to participate, but that space is being used the rest of the evening.  I’ll let you know if we can work something out since we have it currently scheduled as the Qualifying County Contest for District. 

Baked Good Recipe Submissions are due online November 29^th by 4:59 PM

• Division A (Baked Goods only) Recipe(s) must be submitted electronically at www.traviscountyyouthshow.org/youthfair
