Several Homeschoolers win 4-H Macon State Fair
by Rodney Tarleton
Vickie Tarleton, 14 year old homeschooler, won 3 ribbons in the Jr. Division (7th-8th grade) 4-H competitions in the Macon State Fair last week. She won 1st place ribbon for a pillow, 1st place ribbon for a rug (latch hook), and 2nd place ribbon in charcoal drawing. Vickie is a member of the Jackson Christian Home Educators' (JCHE) 4-H group.
Several other homeschoolers won ribbons also, including Tara Whitworth (Sr division-painting-1st place) and her brother Alan Whitworth who won the grand prize of "Best in Show" for his oil painting of a bird.
The Perry National Fair and the Macon State Fair offer wonderful opportunities for homeschoolers to compete for ribbons and money awards in many different areas.
