Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
The county fair provided the opportunity for our community youth to participate in a project day to create entries for the fair. These youth participants got to express their creativity and skill development by creating water color and acrylic paintings, drawings, and clay/wire sculptures. Children ages 8-18 worked on a goal to participate and compete in their individual categories. There hasn't been any participants in the 4-H fair entries since prior to Covid-19, but this year we had 19 local participants that received ribbons and cash prizes on their hard work! They also developed new interests and possible future career opportunities in this extracurricular involvement!
