Lead Summary
By
Emily Taylor-
Every year, the Highland County Fair takes place the first week of September. The Fairfield FFA members spent countless hours working with their animals to prepare for the Highland County Fair.

Being a good showman means having general knowledge about your animal, taking proper care of it, making sure your animal is healthy and practicing with your animal so that come fair time you can show off all your hard work. We want to show off our FFA members who put in that hard work.
