4H & FFA


Check out how some of our neighbors did at the annual Charter Oak Achievement Days Style Show held today by clicking on this link to visit the Charter Oak Achiever's 4H Website- http://www.coachievers.blogspot.com

The annual Charter Oak Achievement Days have been going on for over 60 years.It seems to be one of the last small towns in Iowa to host its very own 4H/FFA "Fair." They have a tractor ride, antique car show, pedal tractor-pull, livestock shows & auction, BINGO, horseshoe tournament, baked goods auction, and tons of friends, family & neighbors! This year they even added a Bill Riley Talent Search.

Folks from Ricketts, Schleswig, Soldier, Ute, Dunlap, Dow City and just about all over this area come and have a great time.

Next week, watch for kids from around Ricketts to show their projects and livestock in Denison at the Crawford County Fair. See you there!
