With the 2016 Washington County Fair in the books, some area 4-H’ers are preparing their projects for the state fair. Amy Green, 4-H and youth coordinator for Washington County, reminds the students to stay dedicated and enjoy the state fair. Green adds to look for the Washington County shirts if you visit the state fair and cheer them on. The Iowa State Fair is being held August 11-21 in Des Moines.
