Our office will be closed Thursday, September 24, and Friday, September 25, as some of our staff enjoy a little well-deserved R&R after the fair, and others are assisting with the Nez Perce County Fair.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We will be back and open for business on Monday, September 28.

4-H KIDS… IT’S TIME TO CONVINCE YOUR PARENTS!

You’ve spent the summer learning how to show your project animal… now it’s Mom & Dad’s turn!

PARENT SHOWMANSHIP COMPETITION

Parents of 4-H members are invited to step into the show ring and put their showmanship skills to the test.......using YOUR 4-H project animal! (With that 4-H members permission).

Each species will have a winner, and then our species champions will go head-to-head in the Overall Round Robin Showmanship Competition!

So, 4-H members, here’s your mission:

👉 Convince Mom.
👉 Convince Dad.
👉 Convince Grandma, Grandpa, or whoever thinks they know more about your animal than you do.
👉 Get them signed up and into the show ring!

They’ve watched you practice all year. Now let’s see what THEY’VE learned!

Parents, think someone else is better suited for the task?

You can always buy your way out with a nomination!

Or maybe there’s someone you’ve been wanting to go head-to-head with…

MAKE SURE THEY’RE IN THE RING!

👉Nominate your spouse.
👉Nominate your friend.
👉Nominate the neighbor.
👉Nominate the person who thinks they’re the ultimate livestock expert.

This is your chance to settle the debate in the show ring!

4-H kids, start tagging your parents. 👇
Parents, start making your nominations.
