Obviously, my kids did well...That said...YES! I though he was a very good judge. I liked how he ran the classes and the different ways he lined up the exhibitors while evaluating the animals and showmen. He seemed very consistent.

The buckles were extremely nice this year at Grant County. People were very impressed with the quality awards they handed out to the champion exhibitors. Adams County (Othello) Fair is coming up fast! Looking forward to another fun week!

Just signed my youngest daughter up for 4h this year (shes eight years old)

someone else took it over from the ffa side this year so we're gonna give it a go while enrolment is fresh. She also competes in the talent show as an open competitor. My older daughter is about done and off to college next year but might show one last time.

Very nice buckles this year! I hope my kids will earn one or two in the future.
I encourage all 4H and FFA clubs to create a livestock booster group that helps raise money to support these kids’ projects. This group will help level the money each kid receives. My family decided to donate to the boosters rather than purchase an individual animal to help avoid the politics of supporting only a few kids. My two oldest kids showed a rabbit and a chicken this year and hope to move up to heifers in the future. Love the fair!

Do you know if all the livestock showmanship winners get buckles?
