At a special banquet on Tuesday, Sep.17, the 2025 Elkhart County 4-H Fair Board President-elect, Randi Yoder, revealed the theme and logo for next year’s fair: “Taste the Flavor, Share the Fun.”

Yoder, also the Fair’s Concessions Director, collaborated with his daughter, Stephanie, on the logo’s design, with input from his wife, Anita. The logo emphasizes the fair’s iconic food offerings, a highlight for many attendees. “We have over 75 food locations, and ‘Taste the Flavor’ captures what we want all our guests to experience,” Yoder explained.

The logo features several symbolic elements, including a 4-H clover at its center, representing the core of the fair’s mission, and a blue background symbolizing the blue ribbons 4-H participants strive for. The gold plate signifies the high standards set by the fair’s board, staff, and volunteers.

As one of the Midwest’s largest county fairs, Yoder noted the goal remains to “Share the Fun” of the fair’s many attractions. He will officially assume his role as Fair Board President on October 1, 2024.

The 2025 Elkhart County 4-H Fair is scheduled for July 18-26 at the Elkhart County 4-H Fairgrounds.
