Tonight I was able to purchase a bacon from a hard working exhibitor at the Hampshire County FFA Ham Bacon Egg sale. I couldn’t be prouder of my little business for supporting him. But in truth, I couldn’t be prouder of the kid that he is.

I’ve watched this kid grow up over the years at the Hampshire County Fair. He is a year older than my daughter, and so I have seen him exhibit for at least eight years. Last year he made the difficult and responsible decision to forgo fair because he knew that no matter how hard he worked with it, his animal was a safety hazard. That is a level of maturity few people his age possess.

Every other year I watched him work hard in his barn, cleaning, sweeping, feeding, helping others. Every year he raised his animal by himself. He put the work in, day after day, and he accepted his placing and reasonings from the judge no matter where he placed. His sportmanship is outstanding.

Far too often those kids get overlooked. They are the quiet ones who do their best and focus on their animal and not themselves. There isn’t a plethora of bidders warring over their animals because they aren’t nearly so well known.

But those are kids who should be known. They should be put on a pedestal and shown as an example of the kind of exhibitor we should all be.

Tonight I was honored to be able to support him in his senior year.

Congratulations Tavon Heavener on your hard work, dedication to agricultural ethics, and exemplary character!

This is a community supporting one another. There are tons of small business across Hampshire County that actively support our schools and children in a variety of ways—through donations, providing supplies, offering prizes for awards, and donating their time. The Hampshire County Development Authority is striving to create a cohesive, thriving community of small businesses that are built to last. It delights me to see their investment in our schools as well! Thanks JT for visiting with our kiddos. They loved having you!
