PRIDE IN AG: Bayard girl had a summer to remember in 4-H

Emma Safford of Bayard celebrated a strong showing in all of her 4-H activities this summer, including earning lots of ribbons at the Morrill County Fair in rabbit showing, beef, sewing, cooking, and shooting sports. Two of her projects even got selected for the Nebraska State Fair, where she captured a purple ribbon for the cool-looking curtains she designed and a blue ribbon for the delicious cookies she made.
