23ABC got an inside look at what a busy day at the fairgrounds looks like for Wasco FFA members as they showed pigs, sheep and goats on Monday morning and afternoon.
- 23ABC spoke with several Wasco FFA members about why they joined FFA and wanted to show animals. In general, the answers were about being around the animals, taking care of them, and wanting to put in the effort to put their best foot forward during their competitions.
- After spending time in the FFA program and getting a chance to see what it’s all about, all five Wasco FFA students said they could envision themselves working in the Ag business whether it be as a veterinarian, a teacher or in the business sector.
- The Kern County Fair runs until September 29.
BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
While many come to the fair for the food, the games, and the fun, for some it’s a business trip.
I’m Sam Hoyle, your Wasco Neighborhood reporter as 4H and FFA students from all around Kern County have honed into the fair to try and take home a victory for themselves and the animals they worked so hard with.
