Clay County Fair Results for Osceola County 4-H Participants
4-H Youth are “Winners” in Consumer Management Skills
Making decisions about what to purchase is an everyday activity that Northwest Iowa 4-Hers explored in a “District Consumer Judging” contest at the 2012 Clay County Fair. 4-Hers representing ten Northwest Iowa counties tested their consumer management skills Saturday, September 15th, 2012, weighing factors such as nutritional values, product services, price, quality and need. They were challenged with six different consumer buying stations from calculating unit prices of nutritional snacks, to choosing digital printing services to selecting lamp and light bulbs. The 4-Hers studied class fact sheets and then were to decide the importance of selected factors when ranking four products or four methods at each judging station. The District 4-H Consumer Judging event is sponsored by the ISU Extension 4-H Youth Program of Clay County.
