So Krystal earned the most points of any girl at the Fair, including exhibits and participation in other competitions. She had to work very hard both before and during the Fair to earn this honor.

    The success of the Pondera County 4-H youth is due to a combination of hard work on their part and training from dedicated leaders and parents. They’ve worked all year for their efforts to culminate at the Fair.
    4-H members are now working to complete their project requirements for the year, and thinking about signing up for next year. Anyone interested in joining 4-H may stop into the Extension office for registration information. The new year begins October 1.
