4-H Youth Development

All in person Extension meetings, events and classes, including 4-H, are cancelled through June 30 - you can still reach us via email, text, phone

The Crow Wing County Fair Board has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Crow Wing County Fair due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While 4-H supports this decision, we also acknowledge the loss and disappointment it causes. We are committed to offering an alternative for Crow Wing County youth to showcase their learning and achievements. So keep working on your projects and be sure to ID your animals by June 1. In partnership with the fair board, we will find a way to celebrate your effort and create a pathway to state events.

  • Positive out-of-school time

  • Service to communities
  • And fun
