Through our 4-H Fair Project days, youth were able to achieve connection,confidence and competence. Each youth, throughout the 2 days of workshops was able connect with youth from around the community and with the class instructors, achielve mastery in learning new skills and achive a felling of accomplishment. The youth learned skills in expressive arts, horticulture, home environment, food preparation, and cake decorating. Each youth completed six entries for the county fair, where they entered items, received ribbons and premium money.
This event was planned due to a decrease in the number of 4-H/Youth entries at the fair. As a direct result of this event, the entries increased by 50 percent,. The 4-H'ers felt a great sense of accomplishment in coming to the fair and seeing their projects on display.
