Carter Glass, a 7-year-old Lamar County 4-H member and second grader at Aikin Elementary School, recently showed two miniature Hereford heifers at the State Fair of Texas. She won a number of awards.
Glass won overall grand champion in the Pre-Junior/Junior miniature Hereford heifer class and grand champion heifer calf with her heifer Georgia. With her heifer Ruby, she won the State Fair of Texas showmanship award in the Pre-Junior/Junior class and reserve grand champion heifer. She also earned reserve champion yearling heifer honors.
Glass is the daughter of Bryan and Hanah Glass of Powderly, Texas. The Lamar County 4-H Chapter also held a steak cook-off as part of its ONE DAY 4-H Community Service Project, in which local youth give back to the community.
