Today our county participated in the annual Rabbit & Cavy Expo. We had a great time today and the kids did really well. I’d like to thank all the county rabbit leaders who spend a large amount of time in teaching their members the many aspects of raising rabbits. The many dedicated parents who encourage their children also plays a huge factor in the amount of knowledge our members obtain. Of course, the many 4-H’ers that put in so many hours learning all the intricate details of their project area is the largest factor in how our county teams did today. Thanks also goes out to our coaches Linda & Kenda Pakulski. Congratulations to all of the members of the St Clair County Rabbit & Cavy Expo team on a job well done.
