📢 Hey 4-H Families!

As of today, we have 596 projects entered in FairEntry for Achievement Days. Last year, we had 1,801 entries, so we know many of you are still working on yours!

⏰ The deadline is May 31, but since it falls on a Sunday, last-minute help may be more difficult to provide than on a regular business day.

If you have questions or need assistance with FairEntry, please don't wait until the last minute—reach out soon and we'll be happy to help!

💚 Thanks, and we look forward to seeing your projects at Achievement Days!
