The Favorite Foods Show is back! It will be held on Saturday, November 19, at the Moravian Church in Egg Harbor City. Attached you will find an entry form and rules.
Once you submit your registration form, you will receive a confirmation letter with further instructions. Here are a few tips:
1 – You must be a registered 4-H member by November 1.
2 – You will need to supply EVERYTHING you need, such as ingredients (make sure to tape over or black out the brand names), measuring cups/spoons, bowls, knives, cutting boards, spatulas, pots/lids, skillets, baking sheets, extension cord, apron, hair tie, etc. (Dish soap, sponges, dish towels are provided for cleanup). If you would like a copy of PowerPoint notes for a suggested list of items and other helpful hints for set-up, etc. please contact the 4-H Office with your email address.
4 – An apron MUST be worn by all participants and hair MUST be tied back. Refer to enclosed General Rules for additional clothing requirements/suggestions.

6 – Practice makes perfect! Practice and prepare your dish at home a few times before the contest. This will help you work out the timing and kinks, and give you practice for what to say to the judges for the public speaking portion.
