There’s still time to get your tickets – Last Call….Friday, May 29th!

The 4-H Legacy dinner is just weeks away, and it’s approaching fast. The Endowment Committee is hard at work preparing for this event, and we would like to extend a personal invitation to ensure you don’t miss this remarkable occasion. This event is a prime opportunity to support the Endowment Fund, which offers numerous benefits to 4-H organizations in our county. It’s also a chance to connect with others who share your passion and dedication to this cause. Get your tickets before May 29th by purchasing them online at go.osu.edu/legacy or sending in your response card to RSVP (feel free to drop off at the Fairfield County Extension Office by Friday at 4:00 p.m. and save time and postage).

The major annual event of the 4-H Endowment Board is the Legacy Dinner and Auction which will be held this year on Thursday, June 11, 2026 at CEC Turf & Tractor in Canal Wi******er. The evening will begin with appetizers, and the auction preview at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner at 6:30. The entire evening is dedicated to the benefit of the Fairfield County 4-H Endowment when you will enjoy great food, fellowship with other supporters of our county’s 4-H program, and perhaps most importantly, lots of fun!
