Despite much of the 2020 Kentucky state fair activities being canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we were able to hold the 4-H poultry showmanship contest. We had 15 junior participants and 1 senior participant. The 4-Hers were from Scott, Warren, Pendleton, and Jefferson County. We were able to social distance while giving the 4-Hers the opportunities to show off their talents.
