Show Notes
Kyleigh Lock is just a sophomore in high school, but has accomplished a lot in just a short period of time. She is already her chapter's president and a district officer, and she has one several proficiency awards at the area and district levels. She is completely devoted to the FFA and to agriculture and it shows. When I asked her if she had any activities outside of the FFA, her answer was "yes, in the 4H", which made me chuckle.
Kyleigh is trying to build up her show string of heifers with superior genetics and phenotypes so that she can find success at larger and larger shows. However, obtaining heifers is not a cheap thing to do, so she has gotten creative. She has entered and succeeded at multiple different calf scrambles to obtain the show heifer she is ultimately looking for.
Kyleigh has already mapped out a pathway to becoming a veterinarian, and she already knows that she wants to open her own practice in the future. Something about her work ethic tells me that she is going to make it happen!
