Paulding County 4-H

Fair Registration

by

*REMINDER*

ALL projects (including still projects BUT excluding Market Rabbits) and classes need to be added and selected in Fair Entry by Friday, May 9th. This is NOT the same as 4-H Online. All animals should have already been entered in 4-H Online which will make this process much easier for those entering livestock projects. Please use the link below for the Fair Entry website.

Toledo Mud Hens Boots & Baseball Weekend

by

The Toledo Mud Hens will be having their Boots and Baseball Weekend again this season starting on Friday, May 30th and Saturday, May 31st at Fifth Third Field. They are looking to fill the ballpark that weekend with as many 4-H Clubs as possible and we will be recognizing all the 4-H Clubs who attend one of the games up on the video board during the game as well. They have a lot of exciting things planned throughout the weekend as well, including specialty jerseys the Mud Hens will be wearing both games.

On Friday, May 30th they will be giving away a country themed Colt Keith bobblehead as people enter the ballpark with a post-game concert out in Hensville Park.

On Saturday, May 31st they will start with a pregame concert in Hensville Park, a bolo tie giveaway as people enter the ballpark, and to wrap up the night they will have post game fireworks on the field and a DJ out in Hensville park to wrap up an amazing weekend!

They want to get the word out to as many 4-H Clubs as possible to join them at Fifth Third Field for this amazing weekend! For more information or if any clubs would want to start reserving tickets, please reach out to Owen Bailey at 419-725-9285 or by email owen.bailey@mudhens.com.
