🍀 Many K-2nd grade Mini's "do 4-H" by attending community clubs and livestock clubs, all of which accept Mini's.

🍀 Other Mini's choose to simply enter projects at the fair and show off their creations to a judge

🍀 Some Mini's take part in special events at the fair offered by livestock and animal clubs. There are county fair opportunities for every animal club in 4-H (beef, dairy, dog, cat, goat, horse/pony, pigeon, poultry, rabbit, sheep, and swine). Be sure to add the corresponding club(s) in 4Honline and connect with club leaders to learn more about their requirements for being a part of fair festivities.

🍀 And lastly, some Mini's like to attend our special Fairgrounds Mini 4-H Club especially for K-2nd graders. No big kids allowed. Some special events for Mini's include monthly meetings each winter and spring, a special day at the Splash Pad, and Mini 4-H Day Camp in June, where they get a taste of our 4-H Camp experience squeezed into one day!
