First Year 4-Her has a champion: The Porter County Fair held it’s annual 4-H Celebration Sale on Thursday evening in the Livestock Arena. Many local businesses and community members stop buy to purchase animals raised by 4-H members and the money is used towards future education. Pictured in the show arena is Lilli Tofte-Tourloukis a first time shower at this years auction. She is showing her Champion Bronze Turkey. The turkey was purchased by Bob and Vicki Rhoda of Liberty Township for $550. (Tribune photo by Dana Gilbertson)
