It's Fair Time Again


It is true that the Robeson Regional Agricultural Fair is not until October (October 1-10, if you would like to go ahead an mark your calendar) but the members of the Junior Fair Board began meeting and planning this week. The Junior Fair Board represent the youth in our county and advise the Fair Board members on things that youth would like to see at the fair. These youth, many who are 4-H members, also help plan events and have a great deal of responsibilities during the fair. These responsibilities include, but are not limited to helping with youth and adult events, running the information booth and taking care of lost children.
The junior fair board members are hand selected by Aggie Rogers, who is a Fair Board member and the Coordinator of the Junior Fair Board. This years members include Cierra Buckman, Kelsey Bullard, Sebastian Bullard, Triton Bullard, Brennen Hardin, James Hurst, Jaboya Mouzon, Aljaquan Nixon, Korina Pittman, Kristen Sealey and Yazmin Washington. Members elected Cierra Buckman as chairperson for the board and Yazmin Washington as vice chair.
During the first meeting, the board members learned about their responsibilities, attendance policy, and made plans for their future monthly meetings. For more information about the Junior Fair Board, please contact Aggie Rogers at (910) 671-3276.
