State Fair Projects Have Returned!

Please stop by the Extension Office to pick up your project. Projects will be held until the Recognition Banquet in November. After that, projects, ribbons and pins will be discarded.

CONGRATULATIONS
To all those who had projects entered in the Indiana State Fair!

The New Arena

Have you seen the new arena? Our latest addition to the 4-H Community Park is located toward the rear of the park. Simply follow the new gravel road and you will drive past the new arena. The arena was built by volunteers, donations and funds from the Young Riders Horse and Pony Club and the 4-H Council.

Our first event to take place at the arena was the Young Riders 4-H Completion Show.

Please join us on Saturday, September 15 for the Contesting Show hosted by Natalie Woolems. See enclosed flier for details.
