Well, you can try it. Worst case, they will disqualify you, but still give you feedback. Best case, you win!

Check out this page: http://www.homebrewersassociation.org/p ... ition-year
One page up from that is the info on how to package the beers. Best bet is wrap them in bubble wrap (I have some if you need it...) then pack into a box upright and fairly tight with newspaper (no foam peanuts.) If you can shake the box and nothing moves, you are good! Send through UPs or better yet a package store. Don't admit to it being beer, just say it is glassware or yeast samples if they ask. Only illegal to ship through US Mail.
