One of the greatest college football rivalries pits Ohio State University against University of Michigan, but NAFB member Ty Higgins, farm broadcaster with The Ohio Ag Net (Columbus, OH), recently took that rivalry to a new level.

Red River Farm Network (Grand Forks, ND) intern Emma Maddock is wrapping up her first month with the network. RRFN received one of the annual internship grants from NAFB, and Carah Hart is her mentor. 

Keith Kirkpatrick, who at 92 still broadcasts a weekly program on WHO (Des Moines, IA), marks his 65th year as an NAFB member this year. He attended his first NAFB convention in Chicago in 1952. His first of many committee assignments was Resolutions.

Are you about to get knee-deep in fairs and festivals? This busy time of year is also a very enjoyable one, meeting the people who follow our broadcasts, as we help recognize the young people of the community for their work and achievements. And while the days at the fairgrounds can be long and draining, I am certain many of you appreciate the opportunity to cover these remarkable volunteer-driven events. And it is one more instance where many members of NAFB play a critical role in the local community.

Congratulations to the six college students receiving $25,000 in college scholarships today, during the NAFB Foundation Luncheon. The luncheon is sponsored by the CME Group.
