What an incredible week at the Montezuma County Fair!

As another fair comes to a close, we can't help but reflect on what an amazing week it has been. The Montezuma County Fair is so much more than ribbons, banners, and livestock shows, it's the culmination of months of hard work, dedication, learning, and personal growth.

To every one of our 4-H members: Congratulations! We are incredibly proud of each of you. Whether this was your very first fair or your final one, you represented the true spirit of 4-H through your perseverance, responsibility, sportsmanship, and willingness to keep learning. Watching your confidence grow and seeing the success you've worked so hard to achieve is why we do what we do.

A fair of this size doesn't happen without an incredible community standing behind our youth. Thank you to our dedicated judges for sharing your time and expertise, our amazing volunteers who stepped up wherever they were needed, our supportive parents who spent countless hours helping behind the scenes, our Fair Board members for their leadership and commitment, our Livestock Committee members for the many hours spent planning and improving our program, and our outstanding superintendents who ensure every show runs smoothly. Your passion and dedication make this experience possible for our members.

It truly takes a village to create an event like the Montezuma County Fair, and we are so grateful to everyone who invests their time, talents, and hearts into making it a success year after year.

Thank you for believing in our youth and helping them build skills that will last a lifetime. We can't wait to see what next year brings!

Congratulations again to all of our exhibitors, we are so proud of you!

Fair is a time for hard work, friendly competition, and a little bit of fun! Throughout the week of the Montezuma County Fair, you'll find donation jars featuring members of the Fair Board, Livestock Committee, and Livestock Superintendents. Members, families, and community members are invited to vote with their dollars by placing donations into the jar of the volunteer they'd most like to see get a pie in the face! At the Mandatory Livestock Sale Meeting, the person in each category who collects the most donations will earn the honor of taking a pie to the face. We'll then auction off the opportunity to be the one who does the pieing, adding even more fun to the event! Our volunteers spend countless hours throughout the year planning and organizing the fair because they care deeply about our youth and our community. This fundraiser is meant to be a lighthearted way to celebrate their willingness to be good sports while raising money for Montezuma County 4-H. All proceeds will help support 4-H member trips, educational programming, leadership opportunities, and supplies that benefit our youth. So, if someone made you wait a little longer in line, your class started a few minutes late, or you just want to see your favorite volunteer wear a little whipped cream, here's your chance! Instead of voicing your frustrations, drop a few dollars in their jar and support a great cause. Let's have some fun, share a few laughs, and make this year's fair one to remember!
