2025 Theme

During a celebratory banquet held Tuesday, September 17^th, the 2025 Elkhart County 4-H Fair Board President Randi Yoder unveiled the theme and logo for the 2025 Fair: “Taste the Flavor, Share the Fun.”

Yoder, who also serves as the Fair’s Concessions Director, collaborated with his oldest daughter, Stephanie, on the design of the theme and logo, with additional input from his wife, Anita. The logo highlights the excitement of Fair Food, a centerpiece of the Elkhart County 4-H Fair. Yoder explained, “Guests to the Elkhart County 4-H Fair look forward to our amazing fair food. We have over 75 various locations offering a wide variety of food options. Taste The Flavor is what we want all our guests to experience while enjoying our fair food.”

The logo has several symbolic elements, including the clover in the center as 4-H is the center of what we do. The blue background represents the blue ribbons 4-Hers strive for. The gold plate represents the high standards the fair board, staff, and volunteers set for the fair every year. Yoder also said: “As one of the largest county fairs in the Midwest, our constant goal is to continue to Share the Fun of who we are and everything we have to offer during our 9-day fair.”

Yoder will formally take the reins as the 2025 Elkhart County Fair Board President on October 1, 2024. “I hope the success we had with our 2024 Fair continues. Our staff and Fair Board always look forward to July and hosting our annual Fair.”
