More Fair Fun!

8/25/2017

The last few days of the Etown Fair have been so enjoyable! Yesterday Madi participated in the breeding goat and sheep shows, where her dairy & Angora goats/ Leicester Longwool Sheep did really well and she was awarded champion goat showman! Last night the girls, a few Pasrba Royalty kids, and a few fellow 4-Her's participated in the Angorapalooza (bunny to scarf) event! In just two short hours, they were spinning angora fiber right from the rabbit, plied it, and wove it into a beautiful scarf , answering many questions by the many passing spectator's. They then donated the scarf to the fair and it is being auctioned off tonight at the arts and crafts auction to support the fair! This morning, Madi volunteered by announcing at the Dairy show! Its so great to be involved deeply in such a community oriented event such as this!

We kicked off the first night last night by submitting all of our family living projects, hay samples, and baked goods followed by the queen competition where we supported one of our county's 4-Her's! All 4 girls did a wonderful job in the competition! Tonight is the rabbit show where Madi will be showing her Angora & Flemish Giant Rabbits as well as competing in rabbit showmanship! There's lots of fun fiber events throughout the week such as a fleece to shawl demo on Wednesday night and the Angorapalooza Thursday night, so if you're in the area, stop by and check it out!
