Introducing Emily & Nicole

Nicole lives on dairy farm in Claverack. She is 9 years old and is a member of the Country Kids 4-H Club. Emily lives on a angus farm in Ghent. She is 8 years old and is a member of the Columbia Country Feeders 4-H Club.

Emily is having a really fun time going to the farms we are visiting. Her favorite farm so far is her family's farm. Nicole's favorite animal she has seen so far is the angus cattle. The other people in our group are another Emily that we call "cowgirl," Megan, and 2 Hunters: 4-H Hunter and Wildlife Hunter.

Some of the fun things we have done are playing bingo (Emily got bingo!), use animal stamps to make decisions, and played a game about all the jobs that farmers have. Some of the jobs were fixing fences, giving the animals medicine, keeping track of money, making food for the animals, and driving tractors.

We have to leave for lunch now but we'll write more soon.
