Fall travel with the Elite 8

Author: Steven Austin

Planning Unit: Animal and Food Sciences

Major Program: Community Leadership Development

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

During the months of September through mid-November the Elite 8 travel several states.  During this time they are not only learning valuable skills of decision making and public speaking but they are also ambassadors for the State of Kentucky.  Top 12 Week helps get this process started but it is fun to see how the young people who travel interact with individuals from across the country.  The 2017 Elite 8 did an excellent job creating good will and building positive bridges with livestock enthusiasts across multiple states.
