(Atlantic, Iowa) – The start of the Cass County (Iowa) Fair is just a little more than a week and a-half away, and the static building will be bustling with activity throughout the fair. Along with being open to see all the great static exhibits members have been working on throughout the year, the building is also host to many competitions. During the week static exhibits will be on display along with Bucket of Junk exhibits.

The building will open for the first time from 5:00pm to 7:00pm on Thursday, July 24th. When the building opens you will be able to see the static exhibits for the first time including which exhibits were chosen for State Fair. Also during this time is the 4-H Food Sale, which will be taking place in the lobby of the Community Center and is free will donation for food made by 4-Hers that will be judged Wednesday, July 23rd. Building hours can be found below along with a schedule of events that are being held each day.

You’re invited to come out and support the fair exhibitors as they showcase the skills and exhibits they have been practicing and building all year. Static Exhibits are projects youth have created this past year as an active growth of their areas of interest. These are a sample of learning youth have achieved. They talk to a judge about what their goal was before they started, the process they went through, and what they learned working towards their goals.

The exhibits may include food, photos, creative signs, posters, or displays and much more. Come see the variety of learning 4-H can offer for young people.
