NOBLE COUNTY COMMUNITY 4-H SCARPBOOK

A3

Welcome This year’s Noble County Community Fair was a weeklong celebration of the things that make the county great. But even more than that, it was an opportunity for 4-H club members to show off their creativity and talents, their hard work and their dedication.

From July 10-16, 4-H’ers showed off what they’ve learned in areas ranging from arts and crafts to animal showmanship.

They were awarded ribbons and banners for their efforts, but more important than that, the fair showcased what they could achieve when they set their minds to it.

We are honored to share those achievements in this special publication, which we hope you will enjoy.

The Noble County Community 4-H Scrapbook is a special supplement to the The News Sun which are publications of KPC Media Group Inc. ©2016 All rights reserved

We salute the accomplishments of this year’s 4-H participants.

They are our future.
