barns around the fairgrounds.

July 19.
8. Flower displays will be judged on originality/creativity, overall design and incorporation of the fair
theme. Awards will be given for first through fifth place as well as individual honors for the Most
Creative, Most Colorful and Best 4-H Design. Designs turned in late will not be judged.
