Menominee County Fairgrounds

The Menominee County Fair is the time and place that many of our youth, par­ticularly those who raise ani­mals, have their first opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned over the past year. The experience of getting up in front of a judge, answering questions (and trying not to shake too much) while trying to remember to stand up straight and look the judge in the eye, is a huge growth ex­perience. They have to learn how to care and feed their animals properly, then learn proper showmanship tech­niques depending on the spe­cies of animal they show. Youth learn responsibility,dependability and public speaking skills - all tools they will need for the rest of their lives.
