2024 Othello Fair Reserve Grand Champion

(1/3) > >>

C-Money:
Fair season is coming to a close. It has been odd with my daughter being an "adult" and not showing. Only one kid to report on for Grant and Othello fairs. My son had a good Grant fair, showed well, earning blue ribbons, but oddly, no call backs.

Othello started rough. His Othello lamb had a difficult time gaining weight this summer, and slid into fair just over the minimum. It was built well, and I truly thought his lamb would get at least a call back in market against the other light lambs in his class. Not to be! Red Ribbon. Un real! My kids don't get Red ribbons!! Well, the judge was consistent and handed out a LOT of red ribbons in market. The Judge did well in my mind, like said, she was consistent and true. The Lamb administrator said he had to go dig out another box of red ribbons there were so many. Getting red was not as big of a blow, as a lot of good exhibitors earn there first reds this day. On to fitting and showing. He earned a call back, and showed well. In the final, his lamb was a little fidgety, but settled in nicely. My boy earned the FFA II (Junior/Senior) Fitting and Showing Reserve Grand Champion. So very proud of him. He worked his job all summer, had football starting in August, and still made time for his lamb project.

Nice job! Our kids had a great year at our local west valley fair with their home grown market goats with youngest taking grand, and oldest taking reserve grand. Then reserve grand breeding goat. Youngest got champion junior showman. At the grandview fair the oldest got reserve grand market goat and all 4 of their goats were in the final drive. Overall champion breeding goat, champion junior showman, and reserve champion intermediate showman!  I love seeing other members kids involved in 4h/ffa, and wish we saw more of it! These are the pics I love to see just as much or more than the hunting photos  :tup:
