Tabletop Advisory Committee News<br />
Our final meeting of the Tabletop Committee made final preparations for the fair. Judges and their assistants<br />
are being secured. If you are interested in helping, call Maureen Bergenfeld (522‐0347). We are asking<br />
clubs who have members in tabletop projects to help in the Whittemore Bldg for a few hours during the fair.<br />
If you can set aside those few hours, please call David McIntosh at 330‐7750. Every club needs to help.<br />
Clean‐up of the Whittemore Bldg is Tuesday, <strong>July</strong> 17th, at noon. Bring your rags and buckets to help wash<br />
down the risers. Cloverbuds are surprisingly very good workers. We will also move the risers in place for<br />
judging and set up judging tables. Strong men and women, we need you too. Fashion Revue will be at the<br />
<strong>Extension</strong> Office. Commentaries are due the 28th of June. If you would like to MC the Revue, contact Maureen.<br />
See you all at the fair.<br />
Which E‐record Should You Be Using?<br />
Please remember, members must complete an E‐Record for every project they are enrolled in. Many<br />
projects require a Specific Project Information Page or Supplement to be completed, so be sure you are using<br />
the correct E‐Record. You can download the E‐Record you need from this website<br />
http://www.colorado4h.org/project_resources/erecords/index.php. You may find it helpful to also download the<br />
various e‐Record Users Guide, also available at the same site and location as the record books are located. It<br />
will have helpful information you can use to assist you in filling the books out.<br />
What should I bring with me to Exhibit Day?<br />
The Tabletop Exhibit Requirements (AKA Premium List) will tell you exactly what you need to bring with you<br />
for each project you are exhibiting. All projects require an E‐Record. Some also require a display board,<br />
object, additional documentation, pictures, etc.<br />
Exhibit Day Interview Schedule<br />
We will soon be posting the Tabletop Interview Schedule on the <strong>County</strong> Fair Information page on the county<br />
website. We will send all Tabletop members an email when it is complete. Be sure you are EARLY for ALL of<br />
your interviews!<br />
Tabletop Exhibit Pick Up<br />
Tabletop exhibits should be picked up at the Whittemore building on Sunday, <strong>July</strong> 29 from 9 am until noon.<br />
Champion projects that will be going on to <strong>State</strong> Fair will be annotated with a state fair sticker and will have<br />
a sheet of instructions stating when the project should be brought back to the <strong>Extension</strong> Office for delivery<br />
to <strong>State</strong> Fair. It will also include information on proper wrapping for safe delivery. If you cannot pick up your<br />
project, please make arrangements for someone who is going out to the Fairgrounds on Sunday to pick up<br />
your project for you. Those projects that are not picked up will be left at the Fairgrounds. You will need to<br />
contact the Fair Office at (719) 520‐7880 to make arrangements to pick up projects that are left at the<br />
Fairgrounds.<br />
Fashion Revue Practice<br />
There will be a Fashion Revue Practice on Monday, <strong>July</strong> 16th at 1:00pm in the Auditorium at the <strong>Extension</strong><br />
Office. Please plan to attend if you are participating in Fashion Revue this year!
