(1)  Enter online at www.boxeldercounty.org>fair>online entry, beginning July 21 but no later than midnight on August 24, 2020.  Please be precise in entering the description of your exhibit as the amount of characters is limited to 44 characters on the exhibit tag.  The online entry website will send a confirmation email to the fair.  You do not need to bring paperwork with your exhibit.  Your exhibit tags will be ready for you to pick up on entry day.  Online entry is strongly recommended but not required.
