The first few days of the Iowa State Fair have been successful for local 4-H members. Members turned in nearly 3300 entries in a variety of different categories. Those placing received awards in the horse competition, horticulture, Ag and Natural Resources along with various food exhibits.
4-H members also placed in leadership categories, clothing and sewing, home improvement, woodworking along with science, engineering and technology and creative arts. Amy Green, Washington County 4-H/Youth Coordinator says it’s an honor for the youth to have an item selected to exhibit at the State Fair.
