2010 marked Matthew's very last Polk County Youth Fair. After (sigh) 9 years of horticulture, whip popping contests, chili cook offs and other projects, his Youth Fair days have come to an end. Several other members of our 4-H Club are also saying good-bye to the Youth Fair. Some are graduating and others are moving away. So this year was bitter sweet for us all. We had a wonderful time and are so thankful to everyone that came out for the Whip Popping Contest. Matthew didn't place this year, but having our friends come out to support him was so much better than a trophy! (Perkins was pretty fun too!)
Andrew, Margaret, Matthew and CJ.

Great job, Matthew! We thought he deserved to place in whip popping. Yes, all those years Horticulture Judging together have been great! But at some time that Youth Fair experience (among others) has to come to an end! We are very proud of his accomplishments. He is quite talented in many areas.
Love,
Molly
Well, Matthew, it sounds like you had a great ending to your Youth Fair days. First place in Horticulture Judging is quite an accomplishment! Wish we could have been there for whip popping!
