Held each July, the show brings together more than 350 4-H exhibitors and their families from across the state for a week of high-quality competition, learning, and lasting memories.

This week wouldn't be possible without our amazing sponsors, though! If you would like to be a part of this premiere event as a sponsor, please contact [email protected] or [email protected] to give or for more information.

This is what happens when their marketing manager goes on vacation. 😅

Can you imagine what would happen to the Wichita County office without our amazing office manager? We’re pretty sure the wheels would come off by lunch! Thank you, Sarah, for all you behind the scenes and behind the keyboard!
