This is the month you will pour over the 4-H Exhibitor Handbook and decide which Fair classes to enter! Have you considered trying a new non-animal project? Remember that any member can enter static exhibits even if they’re enrolled in a livestock project. There is so much to choose from including new projects like performing arts, tanning rabbit hides, and innovation projects! Take a look and try something new, we’d love to see that exhibit building all filled up this year! Just don’t forget, you’ll need a project record for each project you take to Fair!
Sincerely,
Emily Anderson
4-H Youth Development Educator
