[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1667923, member: 498"] 4H is not necessarily about showing. I went through 4H and FFA. Never showed a single animal I raised or owned. It is about projects and keeping records. In my senior year the FFA advisor complained that my friend (chapter Pres) and I (VP) never showed anything. He had 10 acres of cucumbers he raised and had contracted to a pickle factory. I had about 40 head of commercial cattle. I direct marketed 20 steers that year. The advisor complained enough that we each borrowed a rabbit and entered the county fair. We were the only 2 FFA rabbits. We asked some 10 year old 4H girl how to show a rabbit He won grand champion FFA rabbit, I was reserve champion. After the fair we returned our rabbits and went back to real farm activities. [/QUOTE]
