Our summer intern Olivia McDade has been serving as an Ohio Farm Bureau Ambassador during the 2017 Ohio State Fair. Ohio Farm Bureau has the Land and Living Exhibit daily at the Ohio State Fair in the Nationwide Donahey Ag & Hort Building. Tuesday of this week, she got to work with local legislators and attended the joint hearing of the Ohio Senate and House Agriculture Committees. They held the joint hearing inside of the Farm Bureau building at the State Fair. As part of her ambassador role, she facilitates tours of the Ag & Hort building with elected officials. Her first tour was with State Rep. Keith Faber, pictured here, and she will continue to give tours throughout the week. When she is not giving the tours she is working at one of the many educational stations inside the building, interacitng with the many fairgoers. Olivia is doing a great job and we are proud to have her representing Champaign, Clark, Darke, and Miami counties!
