Dates for 2025 Adams County Fair are July 16 - July 20, 2025
4-H Livestock Premium Auction - July 21, 2025 @ 9:00 AM
The Adams County Fair is held every year in July at the Adams County Fairgrounds. The 4-H portion gives opportunities for 4-H members to display what they have learned in 4-H. Whether it is through crafts or artwork, baked goods, sewing, woodworking, welding, showing their animals during one of the many 4-H shows. They learn from each other and the judges, get to hang out and help other 4-H friends to succeed in their pursuits. The exhibits also spark an interest in what they may try next year. Our families and the public can view the exhibits, watch and encourage the kids during the various 4-H animal shows and contests.
