CASS COUNTY 4-H FAIR
64
The Cass County 4-H started hosting its annual event at the Cass County Fairgrounds in 1960. Last year 562 youth enrolled, 150 volunteers signed up and 980 animals were showcased. 4-H helps kids learn life skills — responsibility, public speaking, paper work, communication skills - everything that will benefit them in their future lives. There is more to 4-H then just showcasing animals. There are 10 animal related events and 50 nonanimal events including building projects, baking, cake decorating, shooting sports, soil and water science, weather and climate science, to name a few.
Lynn Korniak, County Extension Director, Extension Educator - 4H Youth Development, who has been involved with 4-H for 36 years now and started working at Cass County in 1999 says what attracted her to the program was that she would provide service to the community, work with the youth and make a positive difference in their lives, would help them grow and learn leadership skills and thus help them become contributing members of the society.
If you would like to know more about this wonderful program, or learn about how you can support the 4-H program, please contact Purdue Extension, the contact details are below in the ad. And if you are just curious, then come join us for the 61st Annual 4-H Fair at the Cass County Fairgrounds from July 10th to 16th, 2022. It is a great event for good family fun.
