\"4-H<\/a>

A year\u2019s worth of work, learning and positive youth development will be showcased at the 4-H events at the Tioga County Fair from Aug. 6 to Aug. 11.  <\/p>\n

Some of the events include the showing of horses, beef cows, dairy cattle, goats, sheep, swine, poultry, rabbits, and making its long return this year is a donkey. In addition to animals, other projects will be on display featuring food, art, science, technology, engineering, math and other agricultural projects. <\/p>\n

Melissa Watkins, 4-H resource educator, said she is excited to have a well-rounded variety of shows and projects on exhibit this year because of the increase in participation in all project areas.<\/p>\n

Because of the success of last year\u2019s programs, some of the youth showing market animals have reinvested the money from their projects this year. Many other youths have returned to show other products as well making people like Watkins excited to see their hard work. <\/p>\n

At the fair, 4-H will also have its food booth and dairy bar which sells fair staples such as hot dogs and hamburgers, drinks, ice cream and milkshakes, and its daily dinner special as well as their well-known taco salad. The money raised from the booth will go toward positive youth development programs within 4-H. <\/p>\n

Watkins expressed how 4-H\u2019s activities at the fair would not be possible without the help from people involved in 4-H and the many volunteers who give their time. <\/p>\n
