Forestry & insects Collections

The Rapides Parish Fair is a great place for 4-H members to show their mastery  of 4-H subject matter and projects. Two popular areas of study in 4-H are  forestry and insects. Members can use their knowledge to create a leaf  collection, a twig collection and even an insect collection! In order to prepare  an exhibit for 4-H competition, a member should begin collecting specimens  months prior to the October fair. Many of the specimens are available at various  parks and recreation areas in our region. You are encouraged to treat nature  with respect when gathering your specimens.
