GES 5th grader, Leona Hunter, and her pony, Skittles, had an amazing showing at the Ohio State Fair on July 14th!
After qualifying for state by earning high scores in at least two classes, Leona went on to place 3rd in Pleasure Driving and 5th in Reinsmanship — an incredible accomplishment!
This is Leona’s second year in 4-H, and she’s not slowing down. In addition to showing Skittles at the county fair, she also completed an Archery project this year.
Leona wants to wish all her fellow fair participants the best of luck and hopes everyone has fun!
Way to go, Leona — we’re proud of you! 🐴
