If you are interested in insects...

Maybe you would like to start showing a 4-H Entomology Collection at the Porter County Fair next year? Maybe expand a current collection? Maybe you just like BUGS!


Jim Louderman of Chicago's Field Museum Insect Collection will show us how to bait in rarely seen or collected insects, sweep the prairie grasses and set up a light curtain.
