within the last two years, and can only be exhibited in the name of the individual making the item. 5. Youth Safety: The expectation is that crafts which would require the use of tools or equipment typically

unsafe for use by youth will be used under the supervision of an adult, but the primary work in creating the item will be that of the youth involved.

not be accepted. Items that have taken premiums in a previous East Texas State Fair may be displayed if space permits.
