The 3rd Annual Show Me 4-H Wares booth is accepting applications for young entrepreneurs to sell their 4-H products and services at the State Fair on Aug. 13, 14, 15, or 16, 2009. 

In 2009, any 4-H member, or group of up to three 4-H members representing a club-based venture, is eligible to apply to market or sell an original product or service.

Youth enrolled in the 4-H entrepreneurship project are especially encouraged to apply.

Upon selection, youth will sign up for a 4-hour time slot at the booth.  Youth exhibitors will also receive a packet of information to help them prepare for their appearance at the Show Me 4-H Wares booth.

Applications require:

1. A thorough description of the product or service
2. A recommendation from an unrelated adult
3. A sample item or quality photo of the item
4. Approval of the 4-H youth specialist or YPA for the county

Youth exhibitors will be selected to fill up to 16 booth spaces and time slots over the 4 days.

Applications are due in the state 4-H office between March 15-May 15.  Applications will be reviewed in the order they are received.  Early applicants will have more options for preferred day/time slots.  All youth exhibitors will be finalized by June 1st.
