Persistence
pays off ~ Addam Hoerbert of the the
Hartem Clovers 4-H Club drew the loudest
applause from the grandstand crowd at
the Logan County Calf Scramble
Wednesday, as he roped the last calf of
the night. Hoerbert, 16 years old, was
drug repeatedly by his calf and never
gave up. Hoerbert’s determination was
incredible and the fans showed their
appreciation for his hard work. At the
end of it all, he was noticeably
exhausted but managed a smile after
admitting, “I can’t feel my arm.” Good
job, Addam!
