As birthday presents go, this wasn’t bad.
In last year’s Great Jones County Fair 4-H/FFA Dairy Show, Sydney Sparks showed the Supreme Champion Dairy Heifer, on her birthday.
Sydney, 10, was in her first year of 4-H, and had only participated in kiddie shows previously.
Was she surprised by winning?
“Yeah, a little bit,” Sydney said.
What made it more surprising was that the heifer she won with, nicknamed “Spirit,” wasn’t exactly behaving.
