North Iowa Fair Help List

Students planning on being in Ag Class next fall are expected to help with county fairs. Students are required to participate in two FFA activities each quarter. Helping with county fairs would be a good way to get those done before school starts. FFA meetings will not count for FFA activities.

The sign-up sheet is avaible at the following link -

Please email Mr. Straube @ derek.straube@westforkschool.org with the date and time you want to help. I will up date the list as people sign-up.
