There were 506 entries in this year’s San Saba County Youth Fair. The Youth Fair was held at the Senior Center on January 15th and 16th. Should you happen to see one of these young people, give them some words of praise – they did a GREAT JOB! We would like to remind the public that the Youth Fair is open to all of the young people in San Saba County and is held during the County Stock Show week. It is an excellent opportunity for youth to share with the community any project that they may have worked on throughout the past year either at school, vacation Bible school, in 4-H, at home or during various other activities. Thanks to all these youth for sharing their many talents with our community.
