4-H Members To Participate In Richland County Fair & Rodeo

The 2023-2024 4-H year, thus far, has been extremely successful for the 240 4-H members and 82 adult volunteers in the ten active 4-H clubs in Richland County.

4-H focuses on growing confident, capable, and caring youth through science, citizenship and healthy living projects that provide hands on learning and engagement in their home and community. In 4-H youth partner with caring adults that prepare them for their future and aid them in being ready for a career of their choosing. 4-H offers a wide variety of projects including animal science, aerospace, robotics, woodworking, entomology, shooting sports, sport fishing, babysitting, sewing, quilting, gardening, leathercraft, photography, cooking, leadership and many more. Along with the projects, 4-H members attend events and activities that have an emphasis on citizenship, service learning and leadership. All the members in Richland County practice service learning by completing community service projects at the club and county level. Youth also attend local, regional, state, and national workshops and events that aid them in learning and developing leadership skill throughout the 4-H year.

This year at the 2024 Richland County Fair and Rodeo, 4-H members will be showcasing all that they have learned and accomplished during the 4-H year, which runs from October to September. Member's projects will be on display from Wednesday July 31 at 1 p.m. to the conclusion of the Fair on Saturday Aug. 3. We invite all to check out the indoor exhibits, walk through the livestock barns and chat with 4-H members as they work the 4-H Food Booth.

The horse show will be on Monday July 29 beginning at 8:30 a.m. We would like to invite all to attend the horse show and cheer on the members for all their hard work this year. We also invite all to come and watch the poultry and rabbit shows on Tuesday July 30 starting at 2 p.m. The livestock shows will begin on Wednesday July 31 at 8:30 a.m. and continue Thursday beginning at 8 a.m. On Thursday members will be showing their cats and dogs and competing in small animal round robin. On Friday Aug. 2 the members will be competing in large animal round robin, as well as participating in the Cloverbud animal parade. In addition, the market livestock program will be holding their annual sale on Friday Aug.2 at 3 p.m. at the 4-H arena. The sale will be following the 4-H award ceremony starting at 1:30 p.m. On Saturday Aug. 3, the 4-H members and alumni will be participating in a cornhole tournament at 10 a.m. We invite everyone out to the Fair to watch the 4-H shows, participate in the events and celebrate the many accomplishments of the 4-H program.
