WVII Reports on UMaine Extension 4-H Livestock Program at Bangor State Fair

WVII (Channel 7) spoke with students and organizers of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension 4-H livestock program at the Bangor State Fair. Students in the Penobscot County club are responsible for raising a cow to have the animal market ready in time for the fair, according to the report. “Overall it’s been a really good experience. It’s a great program that 4-H has,” said Dexter Sibley, a student in the program. He said he has learned a lot about livestock, as well as leadership and people skills. The Times Record also reported on a 4-H rabbit show at the 161st annual Topsham Fair that included a showing and agility component.
