 Dear Exhibitors and Parents,

    This show year we are all impacted from the COVID-19 pandemic that has hit our beloved
 Navajo Nation. The situation is changing daily regarding travel restrictions, curfews, social
 distancing, protective equipment, and many other factors. We here at University of Arizona/
 FRTEP extension as well parents and supporters still want to host a show and sale. With the
 collaboration of parents, 4H supporters and Extension staff we plan to take this as an
 opportunity to host an in-person show and sale at the rodeo arena on the Navajo Nation fair
 grounds. This will be our first attempt to host an event at a different location and we are
 embracing our “Learn By Doing” motto. We ask for your patience and understanding as we try
 to navigate these unknown waters. The top priority for us will be the safety of our youth,
 volunteers, staff, and animals, which may cause some of our rules and regulations to change to
 adjust to new situations. Be assured we will keep the show and sale fair to all exhibitors and
 families. In the past, the show and sale were a means for fun, learning and participating in
 program events. This year, that has changed as a means of adaptation, and facing agriculture
 loss for some families. Our primary goal this year is to get our 4-Hers to have the chance to
 showcase their skills and talents they worked hard on all year long. As well as hosting a sale to
 help recoup some loss that has incurred due to the pandemic. Things may not be perfect, but
 we are doing our very best and appreciate all your support. May you, your family, and animals
 stay safe during these troubling times. We are all in this together.

 Thank you,

 FRTEP Agents/ UArizona Cooperative Extension
