The Ohio 4-H Celebration of Youth will return to Leeds Farm in Delaware County on Thursday, October 6. Festivities will begin at 5 p.m. with a theme of "Honoring Our Past and Zipping Into the Future.”

To support Ohio 4-H youth development, adults 21 and over are invited to join the Ohio 4-H Foundation and its board of trustees for a casual evening of fun, fellowship, and fundraising.

At last year’s Celebration of Youth, the Ohio 4-H Foundation raised more than $137,000.

Before dinner, guests will have the opportunity to participate in the annual silent auction, as well as numerous activities including hayrides, a zip line, pumpkin jump, slides, pedal cart racing, and more. Dinner will conclude at 7 p.m. Guests can then watch pig races and participate in the live auction before the evening wraps up around 8 p.m.

Register to attend, purchase a ticket, become a sponsor, or donate an auction item by Monday, Sept.12, at go.osu.edu/COY. All money raised supports Ohio 4-H programming and operations.

Leeds Farm is located at 8738 Marysville Rd., Ostrander, OH 43061.
