Certified Healthy

  Can you smell it in the air?  It's the smell of the fair.  About a month or so out we always invite youth who are showing large animals (goats, heifers, lambs, and steers) out to the fair grounds to meet with a very important person.  Dr. Bruce Akers is our representative from the state vets office.  He was kind enough to spend a couple of hours at the Robeson County fair grounds to examine these animals and make sure they have health certificates.  This service is offered to our 4-H members showing animals so they can comply with the rules and regulations are various fairs including the Robeson Regional Agricultural Fair.  We appreciate Dr. Akers coming out to check our animals and ensure they are healthy.  We also appreciate those who came from other counties to receive their certificates.
