Hello my name is Nate Philipello and I entered my steer Lenny into the Robertson County Fair where I have shown since I was in the second grade. I attend Franklin High School where I serve as a FFA officer. Throughout the year I have learned many lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I take it as a great honor to be able to showcase my project which I have worked countless hours with washing walking and feeding. Throughout the year I have learned that the sun will rise again and continue to create new opportunities for me to improve and grow into a better person than I was before who is more determined hard working and responsible. I think that showing steers motivates me to be the best of the best no matter what obstacles I may have to overcome.
