The new FairEntry system is ready!

(Please read this entire page before you get started)

FairEntry is for 4-H and FFA Members only. People interested in entering our Open Class competition will find entry information on our Community Open Class page.

For the most part, the FairEntry system in 2024 is the same in years past. There have been some minor changes that seem to make entry a little easier. For instance, you should be able to do multiple entries for horses, dairy goats, breeding goats, and a few other animal species.

Please note: Market Beef, Market Goat, Market Sheep, and Market Swine members will NOT be using FairEnty. These are entered at their respective weigh-in/tag-in dates.

The system is fairly intuitive and quite easy to use. You will need to know the projects that you are enrolled in, and a few things about your animals (detailed below).

We encourage you to enter as soon as you can so that we have the opportunity to fix any problems if they arise.

We are happy to help. You can call and set an appointment with Lexi to come in by calling 719-583-6566. DO NOT wait until the last minute if you think you will need personalized help.

Leaders cannot enter for their club members, but we will be providing periodic updates to club Organizational leaders.

Members will need to review the rules before they complete their county fair entries. You can find the rules on the Pueblo County Fair website at https://www.pueblocountyfair.com/rulesupdated.

You will sign in with the same email and password that you use to log in to your 4-H Family account information.

 A few general things to note:

Payments

Please note there are NO FEES associated with entering the Pueblo County Fair. The “payment” screen is generic for all of the Fairs, both county and state, that use FairEntry. Please click through all of those screens to complete you entry.

Livestock Projects

Market Beef, Market Goat, Market Sheep, and Market Swine members will NOT be using FairEnty. These are entered at their respective weigh-in/tag-in dates.

Market Rabbit and Market Poultry Animals
Please read the Livestock rules before you enter any classes.
If you are in the Market Rabbit, Market Poultry, Market Turkey projects, you will be using Fair Entry. There are more fields required by the Pueblo County Fair than the FairEntry system.
Rabbit – you will need, tag, tattoo, breed, sex, birthdate.
Poultry – name, birthday, colors/markings, breed

Breeding and Dairy Projects, including breeding goat, dairy goat, breeding beef, breeding rabbit, breeding poultry (chickens and turkey), ducks, and geese.
Please read the Livestock rules before you enter any classes.  You will need to look at the appropriate section of the Livestock Rules to determine the classes for your animals.  There are more fields required by the Pueblo County Fair than the FairEntry system. At a minimum you will need a tag number, name, breed, and date of birth.

A note about tag numbers for animals:  The fair entry system requires a TAG number for each entry. If your animal does not typically have a “tag” number (rabbits, for instance) you can put a number in that will help you remember which animal is which.

Horse Project

Please read the Horse rules before you enter any classes. If you are in the Horse Project, your Horse ID must be uploaded to 4Honline before you enter classes in FairEntry. You will need to “import” your animals into FairEntry before you can assign them to a class.

Dog Project

Please read the Dog rules before you enter any classes. If you are in the Dog Project, your Dog ID must be uploaded into 4Honline before you can enter classes in FairEntry. You will need to “import” your animals into FairEntry before you can assign them to a class.

4-H Project Exhibits

Please read the Exhibit rules before you enter any classes. You will need to know which Unit you are enrolled in (for instance, Leatherwork Unit 10) so that you can select the correct class for that unit.  The Name of the Unit will correspond with the names on the Classes.  For instance, “Leathercraft Unit 10 (Sewing Leather)” will have classes called “Sewing Leather Jr, Sewing Leather Int, Sewing Leather Sr”  Be sure to select the correct class.

If you are asked to provide a description you can include it if you know it. If you do not have a description, just enter “NA”

If you enter a class in a project that you are not enrolled in, your entry will be REJECTED. Specific instructions will be included in the email you receive from FairEntry explaining the changes that need to be made.  

If you are asked for “quantity” please select “one”  -- while you might be able to enter more than one unit, you cannot enter more than one project per class.

 If you are in a Shooting Sports project, this is where you will enter your Exhibit Board or Stand Alone. Entering a project here DOES NOT enter you in the Shooting Sports Contest. You must enter the Shooting Sports Contest separately. PLEASE NOTE ABOUT SHOOTING SPORTS EXHIBITS: As with all exhibit classes, there are THREE age groups — Junior, Intermediate and Senior. Be sure you are entering the correct age group class, especially if your youth is in the INTERMEDIATE age group.

If you are in a Fashion Revue eligible project, you must enter the Fashion Revue separately. Entering your Exhibit DOES NOT enter you into the Fashion Revue.

Shooting Sports Contest

Please read the Shooting Sports Contest rules before you enter any classes. You will be able to enter the Shooting Sports contest in FairEntry. You will only be able to enter contests in the disciplines for which you are enrolled.  Remember that you will need to have your hunter safety card uploaded before the contest. Please note:  Entering the Shooting Sports Contest does not mean you are entering an Exhibit Board or Stand Alone. You must enter those separately under “4-H Exhibits.”

Fashion Revue

Please read the Fashion Revue rules before you enter the contest. Youth can enter classes with their projects, or in the Modeling for Fun classes. Please note: Entering the Fashion Revue DOES NOT mean you have entered your project as an exhibit. You must enter those separately under “4-H Exhibits.”

Cloverbuds

Cloverbuds can enter an exhibit in the County Fair. They can also enter the Fashion Revue.
For Exhibits: Cloverbuds are their own Division and will need to enter through FairEntry. They will need to provide a general description of their project if they know it. (“Board describing why cats are great pets,” “cupcakes,” “wooden bench,” etc.)
For Fashion Revue: To enter your Cloverbud in the Fashion Revue, look for the Fashion Revue Department, and then then Modeling For Fun division. Cloverbuds are class 01.
