Ag is Cool program returns to the Ohio State Fair

Posted on 10:00 AM by Unknown

Calling all exiting fourth grade students and teachers! Interested in agriculture? Want to milk a cow but have never had the opportunity? Well thanks to the "Ag is Cool" program, here's your chance and we say get moooooving!

Exiting fourth grade students of the 2011-2012 academic year, accompanied by one chaperone, as well as fourth grade teachers can attend the Fair for free any one day from July 25-Aug. 5.


"Ag is Cool" interactive stations are located throughout the grounds. At these various stations, students have the opportunity to:
·        Milk a real cow
·        Learn about bacteria and food safety
·        Compare their weight to that of animals
·        Spin wool and much more.
Exiting fourth graders are also eligible to enter to win a $500 scholarship.

In order to receive free Fair admission, exiting fourth graders must present a valid report card at the entrance gates. Fourth grade teachers can get a free admission voucher online before July 11 and enter to win a $2,500 classroom grant.

Visit ohioagriculture.gov/agiscool so you can have a Fairtastic summer!
