First-time exhibitors shine at Eau Claire County Fair
At the Eau Claire County Fair a 12-year-old 4-H member watched his Holstein Christy struggle in the heat and receive last place after a 106 degree temperature. Meanwhile 10-year-old Janette Bergeson won the rabbit grand championship, saying she prepared her rabbit by combing it and dressing it for the judge. Club leaders noted first-timers benefit from guidance and pre-fair practice and praised the judge for explaining ratings to participants.
