Fair Reminders
- It can be HOT at the fair and patience can sometimes grow thin.
- Please "put on" an extra measure of patience and keep things positive while you are there. - You may not realize the number of volunteers and hours of time and energy that go into making the fair a great experience for all. Please keep that in mind.
- Parents can help demonstrate GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP to their children and others around them.
- Please help our 4-H members learn that life can throw curve balls but it's how we deal with the situation that truly shows a person's character.
