OSU Extension Service - Morrow County 4-H
Tri-County 4-H Camp!
Morrow, Gilliam and Wheeler counties combined to put on the annual Tri-County 4-H
Camp designed for 4th-6th graders held at Cutsforth Park this past week. Students had
quite a schedule to keep them busy and with the help of 22 volunteer counselors, the
camp was a success! We would like to thank the following people who helped at
camp, Sam Bates, Marissa Humphreys, Shannon Binder, Cheryl Taylor, Debbie Bunch,
Larry Lutcher, Jamie Sprando and Kevin Payne. If you have a skill that you think young
people should know and would be willing to teach next year at camp, please contact
Erin Heideman at the extension office.
Our county counselors
were tremendous! Thank
you: Isabelle Ganvoa,
Grace Ogden, Kylee
McClure, Brooke Harri-
son, J’aena Arellano,
Stephine Wendler and
Matt Orem

Weigh-In Rules & Regulations for Fair
Market Animal Rules: Swine must be weighed on Wednesday from 6 AM to 9 AM, Beef from 8 AM to 10 AM, and Sheep and Goat from 9 AM - 10 AM. No animals will be allowed to have foreign material on them to weigh. This includes all animals. You cannot pump liquid or feeds into animals or drench in any way. All animals will be weighed one time. If an animal doesn’t make weight, that animal will be re-weighed immediately. Members with hogs, sheep and steers not making weight (over or under) are eli-gible to compete in showmanship or feeder classes only – not market classes. White ribbon market ani-mals are not eligible for the sale. When a market animal is weighed in at spring weigh-in, that animal must have a declared fair exhibi-tor at that time. A market animal may be declared a family back-up, but must still account for one of the member’s three market animals weighed-in at spring weigh-in. Only immediate siblings are eligible to share a family back-up animal. To declare a family back-up animal, a family back-up animal form must be filled out and turned in to the 4-H office.
NEW RULES THIS YEAR All animals must be clipped and sheared prior to crossing scales.
Touch ups will be allowed only on grounds. Paperwork must be submitted prior to
animals crossing the scales as well. Please complete the appropriate Affida-vits and COOL forms and put them in your glove box now!
Important State Fair Exhibit Information!
For those of you that may have items selected to
compete at the Oregon State Fair, please read!!!
State Fair Exhibits are due to the Extension Office
in Heppner anytime from 8:00am-4:30pm on
Monday, August 20th. Erin will take them to state
fair on Tuesday the 21st. We have a short turn
around time between county fair and state fair, so
for those of you with foods exhibits, plan ahead in
case your exhibit is chosen to go to state fair! You
can either freeze part of your first batch to use, or
you can make a fresh exhibit Sunday! All exhibit re-
quirements (recipe cards, explanation sheets, etc.)
are also required at state fair!
If you have questions contact the 4-H office as soon
as possible. If your exhibit is not there and ready to
go on Monday then it will not be sent to State Fair!
