Do you enjoy 4-H?
“Yes. I have been in for five years and I like all the new friends I make. 4-H has taught me leadership and I’m now president of our club. I’m also vice-president in the county. Being in leadership has taught me how to speak in front of people. The part I really like is showing my animals. I show cattle now and showed goats for one year.”
Have you won any awards?
“I was chosen for the 4-H/FFA booster club auction at the Marion County Fair last year with my beef heifer. I also won the best overall dairy cow at the Marion County Fair.”
What is your favorite part of farm life?
“I get to work with my dad and I love being outside and working with the animals. I feed 22 steers and five horses every day. I really like the 4-wheeler and the tractor. I also get to deer hunt. I wouldn’t want to live in town with people all around me.”
Who has had the most effect on your 4-H career?
“My adviser, Angie Drake, and my mom and dad, especially dad.”
Do you want to work in ag later?
“Yes. I ride bulls now and want to be a professional bull rider when I grow up. I will have a farm with cattle to help pay the bills.”
