This year’s Paulding County Fair was held from June 6th to June 13th and our members were more than happy to be active participants. The Paulding FFA Chapter always looks forward to our county fair. On Monday, several members participated in the annual Jr. Fair King and Queen contest. Tori Schlatter was declared Fair Queen. Second runner-up for Fair Queen was Kendall Kohart. Owen Workman was named Fair King. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every Paulding FFA member had at least one project at the fair this year. This year there were over 50 animal projects and many won awards. The Grand Champions from Paulding FFA were: Karlee Kohart for Pygmy Goats, Avery Cooper for Market Turkey Meat Pen and Market Tom Turkey, Luciana Martinez for Meat Pen of Rabbits and Mackenzie Leatherman for Market Dairy Steer and Market Dairy Beef Cross Steer. The Reserve Champions for their respective categories were Kendall Kohart with Pygmy Goats, Avery Cooper for Market Turkey Meat Pen, Harley Troyer for Meat Pen of Rabbits, Alayna White for Sheep, Tori Schlatter for Dairy Feeder, Mackenzie Leatherman with her Market Dairy Beef Cross Steer and Addalynne Halter with her Market Beef Steer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were over one-hundred still projects made by our members this year that included picture frames, cornhole boards, drone pictures, and metal boot scrapers. Best metal working project went to Nolan Schlatter, Best SAE poster went to Darcy Taylor, Best Carpentry Project went to Anabel Martinez and Best miscellaneous FFA project went to Miguel Martinez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our members also received a large variety of other awards. We had several members win their classes and showmanship with Avery Cooper, and Hopeful Rose competing in the showman of showmen contest. Harley Troyer won best of class for breeding rabbits. Delaney Johanns won several trophies with her horse projects. She won Hunter Horse showmanship, Senior Ranch showmanship, Champion of Champion pleasure, Reserve Champion of Champion performance, and Champion Versatility. She then earned the High Points Belt Buckle for Pleasure Horses.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our members were also busy all week working in the Paulding FFA Alumni Sausage Stand, serving on the Jr. Fairboard and helping to run the 4th Annual Animal and Me livestock show. The fair came to an end with the livestock sale on Saturday where several members sold their animals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Paulding FFA had a very successful year at the Paulding County Fair, the chapter is excited for next year! Paulding FFA would like to thank everyone for their support of our members at the livestock sale and throughout the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
