Welcome to the online registrations for the 2023 Otoe County Fair. Our goal is to make Pre-Fair and Fair entries more convenient for our families. Please start by creating a log-in. If you are a family with multiple entries, please select "Quick Group". If you are entering in both 4-H and FFA, you will only create one registration per exhibitor but you will change the club name.

(You will need to create a new log in for this year.)

Youth Crop Scouting Competition – August 2 at the Eastern Nebraska Research and Education Center in Mead, NE

This is open to students (those completing grades 5-12) from across Nebraska to compete and showcase their scouting abilities in corn and soybean. Each school, club, or other organization may enter one or more teams composed of three to five participants along with at least one adult volunteer. FFA team members must all be from the same chapter. We are trying to determine interest to see if we can organize practices before the competition. Please contact the Extension Office if you have an interested youth or you are an adult who would like to share your knowledge of crop scouting with youth during practice days.
