The 4-H Fair ' A Great Place When the first week of August rolls around it is most likely that you can find many Riley students having fun at the 4-H Fair. The fair is a great place to see friends that you have not seen all summer, comments Mary Peters ' 85. Rides, food, and ex- hibits are the main attrac- tions for the hundreds of people who go each year. The fair isn ' t all fun and games, however. For some it is spending many hours preparing food, clothing or working with their animals. This can take up most of the participants summer. Self-discipline plays a big part so that the partici- pants have their projects done on time. They start their projects in late June and must have them ready by the first week of Au- gust. This hard work most often is paid off by a ribbon or medal. Left: One of the attractions at the 4-H fair, the Redwood Log House was visited by Kyla Per- shing ' 85 and Julie Zumbrun ' 85.
