County fairs unite our communities and culminate the yearlong educational experiences of Purdue University Extension’s 4-H Youth Development program participants. Activities can include exhibiting 4-H projects on topics ranging from aerospace to woodworking, livestock shows, and public speaking competitions.
Casey Mull, assistant director of Purdue Extension and 4-H youth development, said, “The county fairs allow 4-H’ers to share what sparks their interests and showcase the valuable skills, credentials, and connections they have gained, preparing them for the future.”
