Entries for each exhibitor from 4-H Clubs and FFA Chapters must be filed with the TCJLA no later than the time and date specified. Entries must be on-line with a ShoWorks Summary Sheet from the 4HCM/AST listing the owners and their entries along with one check to cover the total entry fees of all entries of each 4-H Club or FFA Chapter. Checks should be drawn on 4-H or FFA accounts. Personal checks from 4-H or FFA members will not be accepted. The ShoWorks summary sheet, recipes and check should be mailed in one package to:

All entries must be mailed to the TCJLA Post Office Box, or hand delivered to the TCJLA executive secretary. Checks, summary sheets and recipes for on-line entries must be postmarked no later than the time and date specified. Late entries will be accepted for up to two weeks after the due date with an additional $100 PER ENTRY added and collected.

NO ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER THE LATE ENTRY DEADLINE, NO EXCEPTION, NO APPEALS/PROTESTS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR LATE ENTRIES.

Here is the link for the website to find the forms. TCJLS – Forms. Also, if you have breeding heifers in the column listed TAG/Validation #, please be sure to put your heifer’s registration number here instead. We will be checking heifers in according to registration number and birthdate vs tag numbers. If you have already sent in your sent in your entries, please do not worry about it, I will add the registration number to the forms at check in. Just also bring the state tag or county tag number with you to check in so I can verify it on the paperwork I will have at check in.
