Hands-on activities for Children's Fun Station
We are looking for activity leaders at the Children's Fun Station. If you have something you would like to share at the Fair with our visiting families and young 4-H members, feel free to contact the 4-H Office at vsmit@co.morris.nj.us. Need an idea? We have bins with supplies ready to go.
The take-down starts right after the fair ends on Sunday, July 30 at 4pm and continues for the next day(s). https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040f48a4aa2fa46-setup#/
All are great opportunities for students to earn volunteer hours, for individuals, groups, or companies to have a fun and meaningful team activity and give your gift of time to the community.
