I will be showing a steer in this year’s Pasco County Fair. This will be my third year showing a steer, and this being my senior year, it will be my last. My steer is a red angus cross and currently weighs about twelve hundred and fifty pounds. I am currently mostly working on record books, but I still walk and groom my steer every day.
