Collin Arnold Sun Country 4H
Hi! My name is Collin Arnold.
I'm 15 years old, and this is my 8th year in 4-H. I’m a proud member of the Sun Country 4-H Club. This year, I’m raising a Boer market goat named Levi.
We brought Levi home on March 9th, 2025. At first, he was scared of everything—including me! But after spending time together every day, we've built a strong bond. Now, when I call his name, he comes running and makes noise to say hi. He even kicked me the first time I trimmed his hooves—but we both made it through!
Every morning I feed Levi, let him out to pasture, and then we practice walking and showing. Last year was my first year showing goats, and I learned a lot—even though my goat didn’t make weight. This year, Levi is on track, and I’m excited (and a little nervous) for sale day because it will be my first time selling an animal. I know that’s what Levi and I have been working hard for.
I can’t wait for the 2025 Elbert County Fair and would love to see you there on Market Sale Day. Thank you for supporting me and my 4-H journey with Levi!
