Celebrate 100 years of tradition, friendship, and community at the 100th Middlesex & New Haven County 4-H Fair Friends & Alumni BBQ Chicken Dinner! This all-inclusive gathering welcomes friends, families, alumni, volunteers, and supporters for an evening filled with great food, laughter, and memories at the Durham Fairgrounds.

Step inside our indoor family-style dining area (inside the T-Barn) and enjoy the warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes the 4-H Fair feel like home, complete with centerpieces designed by 4-H members. Alumni and 4-H volunteers will be tending the grills and serving guests at the buffet line, bringing generations of 4-H spirit together for one unforgettable night.

The menu is packed with classic summer BBQ favorites, including BBQ chicken, creamy coleslaw, baked beans, corn on the cob, dinner rolls, soda, water, and watermelon for dessert!

Whether you’re reconnecting with old friends, introducing your family to the fair, discovering 4-H for the first time or simply looking for a wonderful summer evening out, this dinner is the perfect way to celebrate the people and traditions that have made the fair special for 100 years.

Join us for a fun-filled evening of food and community while supporting local 4-H youth programs. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
