| Impact Report | 2007 Bi-County fair Prewitt,NM was once again a big success. The Bi-County fair was held August 28th ending with the Fidlers Contest on Labor Day. The Bi-County Fair is composed of two counties McKinley and Cibola. McKinley county has 14 traditional clubs with about 200 active members. The fair began with the lamb show on Friday, hog show on Saturday and steer show Saturday afternoon and ended with the livestock auction on Sunday afternoon. The traditional Public Speaking Contest was held on Saturday afternoon with a mixture of talent. Ages for 4-H members competing in the public speaking contest ranged from 6-14. Trophies were awarded to one Cloverbud, one Novice, one Junior, and one Senior after scores were compiled. 4-H indoor projects this year totaled 214 and ranged from baking to woodwork. 31 projects will be going to Sate Fair. This year for the first time we paid premiums to 4-H members for projects with 1st through 3rd place. A nice surprise that was well recieved. Prior to the fair much preparation takes place by board members and 4-H families, both counties join in for clean-up-days and the pay off is a great fair. |
