Mandatory Ham, Bacon, and Egg Meetings for Exhibitors and Parents/Guardians!

All exhibitors are required to attend ONE of the scheduled exhibitor meetings. To accommodate exhibitors and their families, we have scheduled four meeting options.

Please note: The later meeting on Wednesday has been moved one hour later to better accommodate those with sports practices or who work later in the evening.

🐷 First-year HOG exhibitors are required to attend with a parent or guardian. (Even if you have previously shown and sold eggs.)

📚 AET Record Books: Exhibitors whose AET record books are not up to date will be required to stay after the meeting to work with an advisor. If you are able to update your AET records before your meeting, please do so. If you need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to an advisor before the meeting.

📍 Location: Mineral County Technical Center — Mrs. Sions-Liller Room (Door 30)

🗓️ Tuesday, August 25th
