Jackson County Fair (Session 4 of 4)
When: Saturday, July 14, 2012, 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Where:
Grain Valley Community Center
Description:
“Learning by Doing” is the basis of 4-H work, and each year thousands of young Missourians between the ages of 5 and 18 do just that. 4-H members make the items displayed at the Jackson County 4-H Fair or raise and train the animals on display. The Jackson County 4-H Fair provides a showcase for the skills and knowledge that 4-H members have gained through their 4-H experiences.
Besides developing practical skills and knowledge, 4-H members are developing life skills. Under the leadership of volunteer leaders, members learn to make sound decisions, work cooperatively in groups and develop a sense of self-worth and accomplishment. 4-H also fosters leadership, as older youth share their talents with younger 4-H members.
We salute all Jackson County 4-H members, volunteers and families, and particularly those whose “learning by doing” experiences are represented at this Jackson County 4-H Fair and hopefully, ultimately the Missouri State Fair.
