Julia Searls is a third year member of the Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter where she serves as the current Vice-President. Julia is also a seventh year member of the Cobb Busy Badger 4-H Club. At the Iowa County Fair, Julia showed 2 pigs, Peppin and Okie. Peppin was the Reserve Champion Lightweight Barrow and Okie placed 4th. Julia would like to thank Bug Tussel Wireless for purchasing her pig during the auction.
Julia also showed 2 heifers and 2 cows in the Holstein dairy show. Her fall calf, Bailey, won her class and was named Best Owned Heifer of the show and was the Honorable Mention of the Junior show. Her spring yearling, Burny, won her class and was named 3rd Best Owned Heifer of the show. The Senior 3-year-old cow, Heather, won her class and was the Reserve Overall Owned Cow and was also named Reserve Overall Grand Champion of the Holstein show. Lastly, her 4-year-old cow, Love, won her class and was Honorable Mention of the cow show.
Julia also participated in the Senior Division of showmanship where she placed first and qualified for the Master Showman Contest. On Sunday of the fair, Julia participated in the Master Showman Contest where she ended up placing 2nd! This is quite an accomplishment!! The Master Showman Contest is a contest design to take the top two showman of each species (dairy, beef, swine, sheep, and goat) and have them compete against each other. Each showman has to show all 5 species and exhibit knowledge in the ag industry. Julia enjoyed the contest and learned a lot and hopes to participate in it again in the future.
“I want to thank my parents who have helped me a lot this summer with my animals, and also my brother for coming home and helping me fit my projects.” - Julia
