Fair

Covid Lockdown Resources

For many of our area families, having the kids at home this time of year is not the normal.  While many families are taking this time to get caught up on projects and spend time together, we can all use a few resources to help keep kids entertained.  I did see a great video on Facebook about teaching fractions using a wine glass and a bottle of wine. But we can't all be creative all the time.  With that here are some resources to help your sanity because very soon "Mom, I am bored" is gonna infect your house.

Coloring Resources

A Google search for free coloring pages will get you some great and some really sucky coloring pages you can print at home. Here are some links to some fair related coloring pages (I tried to find some for all our exhibitors):

FFA & 4H Members

I got this from Ms Whitmore, the FFA Advisor at Deer Park High School. These are some great resources for kids to start honing their skills for the upcoming show season. 

During this time many FFA and 4-H members are finishing their school year online at home. Raised in a Barn has put together a list of resources full of fun and educational videos, music, and worksheets to help you continue learning.

What You Can Do - Show off your SAE on social media. 

Go Facebook Live to talk about FFA or 4-H.  

Log hours in AET. 

I know these are tough times. I think the second paragraph in the FFA Creed says it best, “I believe that to live and work on a good farm, or to be engaged in other agricultural pursuits, is pleasant as well as challenging; for I know the joys and discomforts of agricultural life and hold an inborn fondness for those associations which, even in hours of discouragement, I cannot deny.”

We can and we will get through this! Stay home! Wash your hands! And we will see you at the fair.

Fair Parking Attendants - Donation

if you were at the fair Friday and Saturday last year you know what a zoo the parking lot was. We usually have a group help park cars for the rodeo in which we give them a donation and would like to do the same for fair. We need a group or two - (one to do each day) to park cars Friday August 21st and Saturday August 22nd mornings from 7 till 10:30-11. We would want to meet with you the week of fair to go over final details.

If you would like more details you can message this page or send us an email at claytoncommunityfair@gmail.com
