For many young people, “fair week” means rides, food and fun, but for some, it also means work, prizes and learning. Each year, the Statesboro Kiwanis Club gives a number of area 4-H and FFA students a lamb, pig or goat to raise as a project and show at the Kiwanis Ogeechee Fair, said club member and livestock barn manager Debra Pease. The commitment these young folk make is more than just a fun school project.
