    4-H Fair

    4-H Fair

    The Windham County 2023 4-H Fair took place July 26-28, 2024 at the Brooklyn Fairgrounds on Rt. 169 in Brooklyn, CT.  The fair is an opportunity for 4-Hers to come together to showcase animal related and other types of projects they have worked on throughout the year.  4-Hers compete in assorted competitive events receiving ribbons, trophies and other prizes for their efforts.

    The fair is organized by a team of 4-H youth and adult advisors who do everything from sell space to oversee all the weekend's various events and activities.  All 4-H members from Windham County are invited and encouraged to participate in the fair and Windham County Fair Association.  The Fair Association normally meets the second Thursday of each month at 6:30pm at the Windham County Extension Center in Brooklyn, CT.   These meetings are open to all enrolled Windham County 4-H members, leaders and parents.

    We are always looking for community partners, vendors, entertainers and others who would be interested in helping to make the fair a wholesome, enjoyable event for the whole family.  Call Bonnie Kegler: 860-774-9600 or email bonnie.kegler@uconn.edu for more information.
