💚 FAIR DATE UPDATE 💚

Before we officially close out National 4-H Week, I wanted to share some important news about the future of our fair.

On Wednesday night, the Isabella County Fair Board announced and approved new fair dates beginning in 2026.

This decision was out of the Fair Board’s hands, but we want to thank them for acting quickly and doing everything possible to keep our fair strong and successful for years to come.

At this time, this is all the information we have. Over the next month or two, boards and committees will be reviewing things to see if any rules, deadlines, or related dates need to be adjusted moving forward.

We truly appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and continued support as those details are worked through — and thank you for continuing to support the fair we all love! 🍀

"Setting themselves up for a future by putting their hearts on the line today" best definition of what it means to be a 4-Her I've ever seen

3693 likes, 228 comments. “As the fair as come to an end we would like to dedicate a post to our 4-Hers. These kids are setting themselves up for the future by putting their hearts on the line. No one loves and cares for an animal like a 4-Her does🍀”

A judge is a human with an opinion.
On one day.
Nothing more and nothing less.
And in 4-H there is no such thing as losing.
You may win the class.
You may earn a red ribbon.
Maybe even a white, here or there.
I have a few of them. Yes, I kept them. 😎

Either way...you learn.
And learning will carry these children into a successful future. Because they will build confidence and use it to drive into adventure and curiosity and challenge.
This girl worked tirelessly to make the perfect cookies for her 2nd year. She got compliments and critiques. She learned a lot after the feedback from last year and channeled it all.
She earned a purple ribbon.

Last night she proudly handed out cookies to anyone who said they would have one, her smile lit up the room. I heard her tell people that she was proud of her ribbon, but mostly she was really glad for all the extra cookies to have on hand for fair.
Because that is how her heart functions.
Isn’t that what it’s really about?
4-H grows here. 🍀

🎡 That’s a Wrap on 2025! 🎡

Thank you to everyone who came out and enjoyed the fair this year—to our amazing sponsors, generous supporters, and every single person working behind the scenes to make this happen year after year. Your dedication to this fair and to the youth in our community is unmatched.

One thing that absolutely needs to be said: this fair has the BEST volunteers and helpers anywhere. There are so many people who quietly step up, pitch in, and get things done—no matter the task. You are truly the heart of this fair, and we are incredibly grateful for each and every one of you. ❤️

A huge thank you and congratulations to all our 4-H and FFA members! Watching you show, compete, and grow this week was nothing short of inspiring. You make us proud—and you’re the reason why we can’t wait to do it all again next year.

See you in 2026!

Make sure to like her page and find pictures of your member in the show ring! She did a wonderful job and we are so very thankful for all her hard work this week 🍀🤍💚🤍🍀

We want to take a moment to recognize A.B. Photography and Autumn Beukema!
Autumn is one of our amazing alumni, and we’re so grateful she stepped in to fill a much-needed role. As you can see from her photo, she’s one busy lady—but she’s still hard at work preparing images for us.

Please show her some love and appreciation and go follow her page if you haven’t yet!

Thank you again, Autumn, for being such a wonderful and generous part of our community. 💛

And once again thank you Isabella County Livestock Producers!
