From the show ring to his community ❤️

After competing at the 2026 Boone County 4-H Fair and Indiana State Fair, high school student Lane Merrill was inspired to give back. He donated the meat from his county fair Reserve Grand Champion Barrow to the Thorntown New Beginnings Food Pantry—providing more than 170 pounds of pork to local families in need.

Lane was a contender for Indiana Pork’s $10,000 drawing, which was ultimately won by another participant. Although Lane didn’t win, the idea of using pork to help his community stuck with him—and inspired the donation.

We’re proud of young people like Lane who turn hard work into something that helps others.

News coming out of Boone county about another awesome CIB exhibitor!

Lane Merrill, a Freshman at Western Boone High School donated the meat from his Boone County Reserve Grand Champion Barrow to the Thorntown New Beginnings Food Pantry.

Lane exhibited both the Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion Barrows at the 2026 Boone County 4-H Fair. After showing his pigs at the Indiana State Fair and finishing 4th place in the Indiana Pork Junior All-Around Skill-a-thon Series, Lane was inspired to donate meat to his local food pantry.

This donation provides over 170 pounds of pork to his neighbors in need. The inspiration came from being a contender for the $10,000 drawing won by Casey Schillinger.

While Lane didn’t win this contest, he loved the idea of providing pork to his community. Help us give Lane a big ATTA GUY! 🙌
