0593rd Annual Pontotoc County Free Fair
2009 Pontotoc County Free Fair
The Pontotoc County Free Fair is for the benefit of all the citizens of the county, but particularly for those who grow food and feed livestock. Its usefulness is in direct relation to the number of farmers and stockmen who participate in it.
A county fair is one of the greatest educational institutions today. Fairs stimulate interest in the improvement of livestock, crops and improved home practices.
A properly conducted fair should and does result in increased production. No one factor does more to stimulate effort in the improvement of farm and home conditions than the agricultural fair. It is there that farmers have an opportunity to see and observe the progress being made in the improvement of farm crops and animals and to compare his own work with the efforts of others. His success in competing with his neighbors stimulates him to greater efforts and his failures teach him wherein his work has been at fault.
Whether you win prizes at the fair is not the important thing. By comparing your work with that of your neighbors and those in other parts of the county, you can get ideas that will be of help to you down through the years. We particularly urge you to encourage the boys and girls in the fair, for they are the future.

10 93rd Annual Pontotoc County Free Fair
2009 Pontotoc County Free Fair
Pontotoc County 4-H began as did most clubs in Oklahoma with the guidance from the father of Extension work in Oklahoma, W.D. Bentley. Pontotoc County has since grown to become a diversifi ed program with 500 4-H members involved in science and technology projects and traditi onal agricultural projects. There are 17 Jr. and Sr. chartered school or community clubs and 5 project clubs.Rich traditi ons in Pontotoc County mark its place in history of the program.
Pontotoc County raises funds through the 4-H Royalty contest. In 12 years, members and volunteers have raised $166,503 to support local and county program eff orts.
The Asa and Marjorie Hutchison Award is one of the most sought aft er honors. It was established in the 1950’s by Asa Hutchison to encourage parti cipati on in the county fair. One boy and girl were chosen. Today, the top two members vying for this award are chosen regardless of gender.
Public speaking is one of the most popular projects in Pontotoc County. Two speech contests are held each year. The Fall Public Speaking Contest incorporates public speaking, posters and technology while the annual County Roundup is specifi cally public speaking. County Roundup dates back to the 1940’s.
Since 1959, four members have served as State 4-H President and 4 members have earned membership in the State 4-H Hall of Fame.
Life skill development is an important goal of Pontotoc County 4-H. One 4-H member summed it up best when she said, “I like being in 4-H because it gives me the opportunity to make a diff erence in the world just one small step at a ti me. It also allows me to be a positi ve role model for anyone who looks up to me.”
