GREENWICH — The Washington County Fairgrounds and Cornell Cooperative Extension of Washington County are hosting a Youth Showmanship Clinic for all area youth exhibitors of dairy cattle, beef cattle, equine, sheep, goats, and poultry, at the Fairgrounds on June 10 starting at 9 a.m. Participants are not charged and need not be from Washington County or 4-H Members to join the event.

Each exhibitor will have a group of educators to take them through showmanship tips and tricks for their species, nutrition information, fitting, and much more. Youth are encouraged to bring their vetted animal to work with, but if they cannot bring their own, an animal will be provided to practice with. Lunch will be free for participants between the morning and afternoon sessions. 

In addition to the clinic, a Tack and Tailgate Sale will happen throughout the day. Booths for the Tailgate sale are available for $10.00 for a 10x10 booth under the roof. For more information and sign-up forms, please visit our website at www.washingtoncountyfair.com. The deadline for sign-up is June 1.
