A great activity to use with Cloverbuds during this fall as we approach elections, is to teach members about government. Why not teach them about the Great State of Ohio? Check out the newest Cloverbud Connections post: Ohio – The Buckeye State!

Cloverbud 4-H Graduation Video
In order to keep all Cloverbuds and their families safe, we decided to make all their fair activities virtual this year. We had 3 opportunities for members to participate in, and will be sharing them here on the blog. Cloverbud members received a special prize pack for participating in one or all of the activities, if you have not received yours yet call our office (740-653-5419) to schedule a time for pick up. Thank you to the Fairfield County Junior Fair Commodity Representatives for helping with these videos, and the Cloverbud members who participated!

Best of Luck to all Junior Fair Exhibitors!
From all of us at the Extension Office, we wish all Junior Fair Exhibitors the best of luck next week at the fair! We know that the 2020 fair will look and feel different, but we hope that you have a memorable, fun experience next week. 4-H and FFA projects and activities are truly one of a kind and we are so proud of each of you who have stuck with your projects during this challenging year. You have found ways to make a tough situation better for yourself, your family, and those around you by be a part of the 4-H and FFA programs. See you next week!
The Thank You Note Project is Back!!
The Thank You Note Project is back for 2020 but with a socially distanced twist. There will be 3 Thank You Note stations – One at each indoor show arena which includes Feeder Creek, Ed Sands/Farm Bureau Building, and the Round Cattle Barn. Look for The Ohio State Buckeyes Tent or Thank You Note Banner to find the station in your closest show arena.
At each station there will be blank thank you notes for you to pick up and take with you to fill out. Need help with writing a thank you note or filling out an envelope? There are directions sheets on each table that you can take a picture of to reference later. If you are lucky enough to win a trophy, there is a thank you note already on there for you. Once you’ve written your note and filled out your envelope drop it off to one of the mailboxes and we will mail it for you.
Thank you to the Fairfield County Endowment Board for sponsoring postage again this year! Remember to finish your project strong by writing a thank you note to award sponsors!

Back Tags and Wristbands – Check with your Advisor!
Backtags have been laminated thanks to Fitzpatrick Enterprises and they will be picked up by your club advisor from the Senior Fair Office.

Wristbands have been organized by club/chapter and will be picked up by your club advisor from the Senior Fair Office. Any questions regarding wristbands should be directed to the Senior Fair Office at 740-653-3041.
