The 4-H Fair was the event
that I had been planning for all
summer. I did not go in unpre
pared, for I had hours of training
from the best of coaches and
even some help from friendly
office supplies.
Held at the Lampeter
Fairground, the 4-H Fair started
with project check-in on
Tuesday, Aug. 3 and ended with
the final teardown on Saturday,
Aug. 7.
I can only describe what went
on during that week as a combi
nation of complete exhaustion
and absolute fun. As you know,

Everything I have done so far
this summer was leading up to
this one week. This was a week
that provided me with tons of
work and memories that will
last a lifetime.
Of course before the fair
could even begin, millions of
things had to be done - but plan
ning for the fair is not some
thing that can be done by just
one person. It takes the whole 4-
H staff working as a team to
ensure that an event of this
magnitude comes together and
runs smoothly. Preparations for

the 1999 4-H Fair began one
week after the completion of the
1998 fair.
Katina Showman is the coor
dinator of the event, and as her
assistant I am given many jobs,
including phone solicitor. It was
my responsibility to contact and
locate the many judges and
other helpers who keep the fair
running.
During the weeks that lead
up to the fair, my best friend in
the office was none other than
my desk telephone! The phone
