4-H Still in Limbo

(LaPorte) - 4-H youth activities have been limited even further into the summer due to social distancing precautions.

 

There will be no face-to-face 4-H activities now through June. Purdue Extension leaders made the announcement to 4-H members in a letter Wednesday. 

 

Many of the activities, like meetings and workshops, will be coordinated online. Other events, like camps and conferences, have been canceled.

 

The decision will greatly impact more than twenty Hoosier counties that have their local fairs scheduled in June.

 

LaPorte’s county fair in July is still a go, however.  The Fair Board confirmed on Thursday via Facebook that, despite rumors to the contrary, the 175th LaPorte County Fair will take place July 12-18.
