4-H Exhibit Building
The 4-H Exhibit Building this year will have a vast display of projects completed by Richland County 4-H members. In the 4-H program, youth have the opportunity to partake in projects that enhance important life skills. As 4-H in the nation continues to grow, 4-H projects are becoming more diverse. The projects that youth can now enroll include projects from sewing to sport fishing, cooking to skate boarding, and woodworking to robotics. Our 4-H members have been busy all year long and we will have many displays this year including; gardening projects, art and craft projects, quilts, citizen and leadership exhibits, as well as many more. The 4-H exhibits will be on display from Wednesday, July 30th at noon to the conclusion of the fair on Saturday, August 2nd.
