I participated in the Swine Show at the Kentucky State fair for the first time as an extension agent. I attended from Monday August 22nd through August 25th. I had a variety of different jobs including check-in for contestants, to handing out ribbons during Showmanship. Attending and working the swine show, allowed me to make connection not only with participants, but also agents in other counties that I would not have had the chance to interact with otherwise. I was provided tips and different programing ideas to implement within the county. I also have a better understanding of what goes in to showing livestock. I hope to take what I learnt and apply it to benefit those within Rowan County.
