OTTAWA,IL — 4-H club members have been preparing all year for this week’s La Salle County 4-H Show and Junior Fair.
This year’s theme is “Sew it — Grow it — Show it,” and those efforts will be on display beginning at 8 a.m. Thursday.
The fair, however, gets started with the Big Hat World Championship Rodeo at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the fairgrounds on the southwest corner of Ottawa. Evening events at the grandstand Thursday-Saturday include tractor pulls and the weekend’s demolition derby.
