Berryhill Shines at Arkansas 4-H Senior Livestock Skillathon
Berryhill has made quite an impression at the Arkansas 4-H Senior Livestock Skillathon, finishing with an impressive 4th place overall.
Arkansas 4-H’s livestock program is about teaching youth essential life skills that include decision-making, record-keeping, and time management. Participants also engage in livestock judging, skillathon events, quiz bowls, camps, and public speaking, all of which contribute to a comprehensive educational experience.
The Senior Livestock Skillathon is a challenging event that puts contestants through their paces. The competition involves identifying livestock breeds from photographs, completing a 30-question multiple-choice quiz, and more. Berryhill demonstrated exceptional skill and knowledge in these areas to secure his position.
This achievement adds to the Berryhill family’s impressive record in Arkansas 4-H. Just last year, Jack Berryhill received the esteemed Arkansas 4-H Governor’s Award, highlighting the family’s commitment to the organization and its values.
