Forrest Floto is a true Friend of 4-H to Ogle County. When the Ogle County Fairgrounds was sold, he was a part of the group to look for a new location for the Ogle County 4-H Fair. Forrest orchestrated the removal of the building and coordinated volunteers so there was a smooth transition for 4-Hers from an established fairgrounds to a new and expanding one. Although he has retired from being a 4-H leader he continues to be supportive of 4-H and its growth. He assists with projects at the fairgrounds and allows youth to visit his farm to learn about the beef industry.
