The livestock judging contest is Saturday morning at 9:00 am. This is for the little ones up to the experienced ones. (Yes, we have trophies even for the Clover Kids!) It's a great learning process, all while being with your friends. Register at 8:30 am.

Remember clean up day before the fair? There's also a clean up day after the fair, to put things away and clean up after ourselves. And better than root beer floats, there's the opportunity to win a prize! All kids who help clean up get to put their name into the bucket to be drawn for a prize. HOVER BOARDS! See the list of prize sponsors below....

Paper forms for this year's nominations are in the 4-H Fair Office.

. At least one attendant should be present at the club exhibit between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. daily to care for Herdsmanship needs. A herdsmanship check will be conducted one hour after the show but not before that time. Pens will be checked following the release times on Sunday.
