What is your must have item at a cattle show? My go to item is my custom leather number harness because it has our family farm logo on it and my sister got it for me as an early birthday gift. What is your favorite show product? My favorite show product would have to be Powderful because it helps builds up the legs. My sister & I fit front legs while we let dad do the back. Favorite activity outside of NJSS? I am very involved in choir. Participating in Solo and Ensemble for over five years and have made it to state twice. What do you want to be when you grow up/future career plans? I will be attending Northeast Tech for photography and I plan on going into Livestock photography with my sister. Bailey Abney
