Before the Christian County Fair begins, some 4-H participants have the opportunity to share projects they have worked on.  Not only can they win prizes, but the preparation provides valuable development with practical skills. 

Payton and Colin May, both from Taylorville, are among the many participants.  Their projects involve baking delicious recipes. 

Both of them are also involved with caring for the livestock on their farm.  Colin says it can be an adventure at times, but they both enjoy the work. 

Payton encourages youth to join 4-H for skill development and the social experience.

A schedule of the 4-H activities which are part of the Christian County Fair is available here. 

Payton and Colin May appeared as guests on the WTIM Morning Show live at the University of Illinois Extension office as part of our coverage of the Christian County Fair.
