2025 CLATSOP COUNTY FAIR POSTER

My name is Haddie VanBerkom, and I am so excited to be able to have my artwork used for promoting this years Clatsop County Fair. This is my fourth year in 4-H. Every year I take pigs, a turkey, sewing projects, art, and horticulture. I am so thankful to this community for all the support that you offer kids like me.

We moved here as a Coastie family, but we hope to stay for a long time. Since being here, I have had the opportunity to participate in 4-H, Soccer, Softball, and Youth Group. Each of these activities are only possible because of the people who take the time to pass their skills forward and I hope someday to return the favor. Thank you, Haddie
