The Minnesota Washington County Commissioners voted to end funding for 4-H at the County level this year ($131,800). County funding will discontinue on September 15, 2009.

Lack of continued funding for the 4-H Extension Educators will mean that no State Fair trips can be awarded from the County Fair (the goal of every member). This will effectively end 4-H in Washington County as we know it today.

The effects of this decision will cascade by dramatically decreasing the County Fair participation, exhibits and activities. This will in-turn lower overall County Fair attendance which will impact businesses and the community at large with lost revenues. The loss of 4-H funding essentially will mean the loss of the County Fair.
