4-H BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER AT THE COUNTY FAIR
It’s the time of year for 4-H clubs to think about what kind of a basket you will be creating for our famous 4-H Basket Raffle Fundraiser! Clubs are also welcome to contribute smaller items that kids would like to be combined and put together as a basket if putting a full basket is not possible.
Basket Raffle items should be:
- In a container of some kind – basket, tote, bucket, cooler, etc.
- Wrapped in cellophane or a clear plastic bag to keep things clean and help ensure that the contents stay in baskets while on display at the fairgrounds.
- Include a clearly displayed card/sign listing items in basket, thanking any donors, and stating the club’s name.
- NO perishable items, NO alcohol, NO tobacco products
We need to have your basket raffle items at the office by NOON Friday, July 25th.
NOTE: Heavy, awkward or fragile baskets/raffle items should be taken directly to the Expo building on July 25th before noon.
If you have questions please feel free to contact Carol Janssen at 920-203-3439

Register for your Dipper Shifts at
https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040D49ADAE2DA3F85-57186305-2025#
Each 4-H Dipper shift will be 2 to 2 ½ hours and should consist of 5 Adults/Older Youth (8th Grade and higher) and 5 younger youth (Cloverbuds through 7th grade). Responsibilities may vary depending on shift but we prefer to have adults and older youth handle the cash box, scoop ice cream, make shakes and malts, and help supervise the team during the shift. We will also REQUIRE an adult to operate the griddle per state 4-H policy. Younger youth can serve drinks, take orders on the iPAD, and help put toppings on the sundaes.
Clubs can sign up for group shifts but we ask that the individuals that will be working the shift sign up for their times so we can learn names and know who is coming to help us work the shifts. Pick times that will work for you and your family between showing animals, performing on the showcase stage, and all the other fair fun. It is a great opportunity to meet other youth and adults from around the county you may not see on a regular basis.
If you have any questions, please contact the office or contact a member of the Dipper committee. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have. We look forward to working with you at the 2025 Winnebago County Fair!
