July update from the desk of Lisa Dierks, regional director

County Fair Season will begin in Southeastern Minnesota during the week of July 7 at the Winona County Fair. For our 4-H members, county fairs are not just about grandstand shows, food and rides! This is one of the several ways they can showcase their projects to share their knowledge and skills with the judge and with each other.
