Show books are a big part of competing as a 4Her. 

On the WHOW Morning Show Monday, Kendra Wallace, 4H Coordinator for the University of Illinois Extension in DeWitt, Macon, and Piatt Counties told Regional Radio that there have been changes on how the 4H Show Book works. While there is an archived webinar explaining the changes, Wallace recommends you look through the new show book as well. 

Some changes are due to a lack of space at the State Fair in Springfield. Wallace explains that while the fair board has done a lot to make sure all projects can be hosted, the creativity of students can sometimes outgrow the space.
