New this year! Clover Kids ages 5–7 (by Jan. 1 of the current year) may bring their own livestock (weighing less than 350 pounds), poultry and rabbit(s) to exhibit in a 4‑H Clover Kids Showmanship class at the Lancaster County Super Fair. Learn more on page 15 of the 2025 Lancaster County Super Fair Book at https://lancaster.unl.edu/4h/fair/.
To participate, an animal ID must be submitted by June 15 (poultry do not require an ID). Unlike livestock exhibitors ages 8–18, Clover Kids do not need to complete the Youth for the Quality Care of Animals (YQCA) requirements. Clover Kid Animal Showmanship exhibitors may chose to bring their animal(s) to fair in one of two ways:
1) By following animal 4‑H & FFA exhibitor load-in and load-out guidelines, found on page 54 of the Fair Book.
2) Arriving with their animals day‑of the species show. Animals arriving day‑of‑show must be in stalls by 8 a.m. and may be released at completion of the show.
For either method, please request a stall/pen by emailing lancaster4h@unl.edu by July 1. Contact Madelaine Polk at mpolk2@unl.edu or 402‑441‑7180 with questions about Livestock and Poultry and Kate Pulec at kpulec3@unl.edu or 402‑441‑7180 with questions about Rabbits.
