Congratulations to Riverside 4-H Club member, Mason J, on being recognized as the State Award winner in the Swine Project!

Mason, Lyon County, is our State 4-H Award Recipient in the Swine Project. 🐷🐖🥓
In his own words: My six years in the 4-H swine project have made me more responsible and confident. When I was ten years old I got my first pig, and I knew very little about raising and showing pigs. Being a 4-H member has helped me to learn the skills it takes to grow in this project. My favorite part of the project is the friendships and mentors I have met along the way. I have gained more knowledge and skills thanks to everyone who has supported me. I am now a responsible and confident showman. Knowing that showing pigs is about far more than just feeding and showing them.
