Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the Foundation at the Clay Shoot. It was great to see so many familiar faces and welcome new ones as well. We couldn’t have asked for a better spring day.

We raised over $20,000 that will go toward awarding scholarships at the 2027 Farm Show.

Congratulations to those who earned bragging rights!
