Dear Local Leaders and Club Members,
We are part of the State 4-H Foundation Board of Directors. We sponsor 4-Hers in our areas of Tarrant and Dallas Counties with various projects, raising 4-H projects and providing grants for our 4-H youth in these areas! We are the source on the State level for Tarrant and Dallas County 4-H Clubs to access grant money and need your help to raise funds for our Community’s Youth!
We are attaching the information for the 4-H Foundation shoot that will be March 13 at Defender Outdoors in Benbrook starting at 8 am. AgTrust Credit, Stewart State Farm Ins. Agencies and The Meat Board are also sponsors and we’re looking for both shooters and sponsors.

It’s coming up fast so hoping to get some solid commitments soon. This is for the 4-H youth of our community which is such a great cause!

Dear 4-H Members and Families,
The 2025 Tarrant County Junior Livestock Show and Youth Fair is quickly approaching.
We will accept buyers catalog ads until Thursday 2/13/25 at 5pm. Please get those into Brandi at tcjlasponsors@gmail.com
We are also looking for any pictures you may have from previous years. We would like to showcase the history of TCJLS for the 75th Anniversary and pictures from the past are a great way to do that. I know some of you exhibited at this show when you were a kid and those pictures are gold if you have access to them. Please send them our way!!!
We will need student volunteers for the Helping Hands Show on Saturday morning 3/1/25. We will also need entrants with Special Needs. The forms are attached but they are also on the website www.tcjls.org We would like to get as many volunteers and entrants as possible prior to the show so t-shirts can be ordered.

Pictures for TCJLS Social Media
Here is a link to a google drive I have created to compile photos for TCJLS to utilize for social media. Once you open the folder find your club or chapter, if you don’t see your club or chapter then create a new folder and name it your club/chapter. Upload pictures of anything related to your program livestock, youth fair etc. If you have questions on formatting or anything related send them directly to Morgan, her email is morgangracehowe@gmail.com
Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12T_a-JB5LelVBYjlzJlwqWX_AcPbjnOb?usp=drive_link
There are also several jackpots offered this year, and they are posted on the website as well.
As always you can email me with any questions, I may not know the answer but I probably know someone who does.
See you at the show!!!
Thank you,
Laura Howe
