Greetings Wilkin County 4-H’ers, families and friends!

Our favorite season is fair season! We are so excited that you are a part of Wilkin County 4-H, and hope you choose to exhibit at the Wilkin County Fair!

4-H Achievement Days will be on July 26 and 27, 2024 and the Wilkin County Fair will be on August 22 to 25, 2024! The achievement days offer youth an opportunity to showcase what they have learned and worked hard on throughout the year. This evaluation of exhibits is unique to 4-H and also creates a pathway for youth to bring their best exhibits to the Minnesota State Fair later this summer.

This is the time to share your talents! Explore the many project areas and find the entry area that resonates with you. We can’t wait to see what you will choose to bring to the fair! Now is the time to start planning your showcase experience. The county fair book outlines all the rules & regulations for any exhibits you will bring to the fair, how to pre-register for the fair, a full schedule of events, and some FAQs.

NEW IN 2024 - Please note that fair registration will open on June 15, 2024 and close on July 1, 2024 due 4-H Achievement Days taking place in July.
