Welcome to our 2021 Pinal County 4-H Fair!
The Pinal County Cooperative Extension staff would like to extend a warm 4-H Fair

for the specific requirements.
We would like to send special thanks to our 4-H Project Directors, Contest Coordinators, Certified Volunteers,
Parents, Members and Judges who contribute time and collaborative efforts toward a rewarding and successful
Pinal County 4-H Fair experience. Your kind assistance and numerous hours of dedicated service provide 4-H
