Fair Climax Of Summer For 4-H Achievement Days were the climax of summer activities for many stu- dents in 4-H groups. The Fair was held August 1-3 in Flandreau. Livestock shows, exhib- its of baked goods, sewing projects, and other handicrafts, as well as, fashions shows, beef and pork roasts highlighted this three-day event. Carnival rides and a three-wheel pull were a part of the activities, also. Each 4-H group, consisting of mem- bers between the ages of 8 and 19, held a meeting at least once a month. At such meetings, demon- strations were given by a member followed by a business meeting. Fund raisers, such as, selling trees or having bake sales and ice cream socials helped the 4-H’ers raise money for summer trips.

Groups, such as, the Trent Baptists and MYF, put on the Easter Sunrise Service for their churches. Children’s sermons were often the responsibility of youth groups.
