Summertime is in full swing – horse shows, fairs, trail rides, Rodeos! Rainbow is in full swing too, preparing for the upcoming Fairs and supporting local 4H, FFA and independent youth as they prepare to exhibit their animals. Raising, showing and marketing a project animal is a big job, and a wonderful learning experience. Young exhibitors learn more than just how to show their animal. They also learn record keeping and bookkeeping, public speaking and confidence. Participating in 4H and FFA creates life-long memories and experiences for participating youth. Come down to your local fair and watch the future happen!
