(Chelsea Update would like to thank John Knox for the information in this story.)

The Chelsea Kiwanis Club recently held its annual “Farmer’s Night,” which was very well attended and was highlighted by a presentation from the 4-H Livestock Judging Team.

Members talked about their recent trip to Louisville for the North American International Livestock Judging Contest.

“Farmers Night” is a chance for the Kiwanis Club to show its appreciation and celebrate the local farming community.

The Livestock Judging Team included 4-H members Zeke Breuninger, Kayla Holsten, Natalie Horning and Jacob Kern and coaches Joel Powers and Nancy Thelen.

The team explained their training, which included twice a week practices and a practice judging event at the Maryland State Fair. They then described their experiences in participating at the North American International Livestock Judging Contest, and went through a sample judging of Angus Heifers.
