Each participating 4-H Club and FFA Chapter that successfully completes a NEW billboard promoting the 2021 Huron Community Fair will receive $30 from the Fair Board to cover the expense of a NEW billboard. For those who participated in 2019, please feel free to re-use your billboard from 2019 by either:
1. Just changing the dates on it (will NOT be judged); or
2. Completely re-vamping your billboard (to be judged).
Judging will take place the first full week in July and awards will be given out for:
