Congratulations

C-M-R Farm Fair proved to be

successful for county 4-Hers.

Thirty-six Rappahannock residents (28 children

and eight adults) participated in the CulpeperMadison-Rappahannock

Farm Fair 2000 and should be congratulated for their achievements.

The Grand Champion Market Hog, Grand Champion Market Lamb, Grand Champion Market Steer and Grand Champion Dairy Goat were all from Rappahannock County.

In addition to these awards; two Best in Show awards in the Home Economics Department and the County Farm Service "Youth of the Year" award all went home with county exhibitors.

Mrs. Hazel Zinn-Day, the 4-H adult leaders and parents of 4-Hers in Rappahannock County deserve much praise for their constant encouragement to these children. They spend countless hours working with children and helping them to prepare for the fair.

The 4-Hers were excited about their achievements and are enthusiastic about 4-H in general. The 4-H program is worthwhile and deserves support. It is especially true in an agricultural community like Rappahannock.

We applaud each and everyone on their accomplishments and extend special thanks to Hazel ZinnDay and her fine team of volunteers for their heroic efforts.
