Cardington FFA members participated in the recent Morrow County Junior Fair which was held Sept, 3-6. Although the format was a little different this year due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Cardington FFA had over 100 members participating.

The fair had a specific day for each animal species so there was not a large amount of people attending the fair at one time.

The Cardington FFA achieved many accomplishments this year and is very happy with the outcome of the 2020 Morrow County Fair. The chapter was recognized in almost every species. Following are the final placings of Cardington FFA Chapter members:
