ELIGIBILITY FORMS DUE NOW – You MUST have an approved Eligibility Form on file to participate in your event. There are no exceptions to participating if you do not have your eligibility form approved by the event date. We cannot control getting a form back from the school. The sooner you get it to the Extension Office, the better chance you have of getting it approved at the school level and back to us in time.
