The animals are back at their respective homes, and the ribbons are proudly displayed in the house. The 2010 Polk County Fair was a success for over 100 4-H members. The 4-H building boasted over 700 exhibits this year! The 4-H program would once again like to thank the area businesses that supported the fair, and to all of you who ate at our food stand! We sure hope you were pleased and will come back again next year.
