On Wednesday the pigs took the stage. Kooper Patino and Emma Spurlock secured sale spots while all other exhibitors showed exceptionally well in some steep classes, most finishing just 1-2 spots short of a sale hole.
ALL of our pig exhibitors were dialed in this year with feeding and working with their animals and we are incredibly proud of them all!
5th graders enjoyed a "Fancy Day" as they learned about formal vs. informal language.
