4-H'ers continue fair preparations

Thursday, June 30, 4-H?ers gathered at the Washington County Fairgrounds with their sheep projects for showmanship practice and fair preparations. The countdown to the Washington County Fair is on and these youth are looking forward to the July 19 sheep show. The evening was led by sheep committee member volunteers Duane Sprouse and Jim Nebel.

Jim Nebel works one on one with first-year member Taylor Bartholomew. She is a member of the Washington Hustlers 4-H Club and the daughter of Scott and Michelle Bartholomew.
