The Washington County Fair offers the Agricultural Youth of Washington County the opportunity to exhibit their 4-H and FFA sponsored Livestock projects to the public in a competitive environment. The Fair then sponsors a Premium Only Livestock Auction for the best projects in each division, in which, businesses and individuals interested in encouraging young people to stay involved in agriculture, are allowed to "purchase the animals". The youth are allowed to keep their projects to exhibit at State and Regional Fairs or to add to their own herds at home, and use the money to purchase next year's project, pay feed bills, or add to their savings account.
Dinner will be served at 5:15 p.m. and the Premium Sale begins at 6:30 p.m.
For more information or to attend, please contact Cheryl West at 479.846.3907.

Grand Shelter, Prairie Creek, Beaver Lake
The purpose of Secchi Day on Beaver Lake is to reach out to citizens and educate them about Beaver Lake and the watershed so they will better understand how the health of the lake and the watershed bears a direct impact on the quality of raw water in the lake.
Teams in boats will become citizen scientists as they collect water samples and record clarity measurements. Educational activities will be taking place at the Grand Shelter, as well. Topics will include water quality and drinking water, wildlife, birding, rain gardens, sustainability and more.
