Special project
Henry Pierce, president of the North Royalton Homesteaders 4-H Club was challenged by Greystone Veterinary Hospital + Urgent Care to find a creative way to grow local support for the Cuyahoga County Fair’s 4-H Livestock Auction.
He launched a service project this summer to visit local businesses and government officials to explain the impact the 4-H program has not only on local youth, but also to the greater community.
New businesses or local government officials who attended the auction were eligible to receive the turkeys Pierce raised: two turkeys for their family and two more donated to the charity of their choice.
North Olmsted City Councilperson Chris Glassburn won the raffle, and donated all four turkeys to the Oxcart Pantry, which serves an area hit hard by recent tornadoes.
