PIZZA PARTY

Pizza Party Crew

Below are videos from the pizza party. The girls were blind folded and given a farm animal. They crawled around on the ground making their animals noise and trying to find their group. HILARIOUS to watch! Then their group had to come up with a rap for the fair. The first video is of the group that won!
WINNERS!

Next event is queen judging.

Good Luck Girls!

Indiana State Fair Queen

After the workshop today we had a luau. The 2009 Indiana State Fair Queen joined us as well as 2008 Hancock County 4-H Fair Queen. The girls invited a lady guest to join them for lunch. We discussed the plans for the pageant, the queens talked to the girls and gave a speech, the ladies got to ask questions while the contestants played games. We played limbo, hawaiian sack race, show us your best dance move, and pterodactyl! They had a blast playing games. When the ladies rejoined us after question/answer time we played musical beach towels.
