Meet the Social Media and Publicity Committee

Hi!

My name is Cortney Newby. I am currently involved in my second quarter here at Cal Poly State University. I am an Agriculture Science/Communication major, working on a minor in Range Resource Management. I transferred from Cuesta as a junior last quarter. I am excited to be here where I can focus my studies to my area of interest:  agriculture.


I have lived here on the Central Coast my whole life. I grew up in Atascadero where I was active in the Cerro Alto 4-H club. What brought me to 4-H initially was my love for agriculture, specifically in the area of livestock. I showed for ten years at the California Mid-State Fair:  eight years with sheep, and my last two years I showed steers and a heifer. My sheep showing career was highlighted with a 4-H Champion Market Lamb; however, I also loved working with cattle. To get some extra time in showing, my last two years exhibiting I showed in several jackpots...including Western Bonanza!

I am so excited to be on this year's Western Bonanza team! I know how hard participants work to prepare their animals in preparation for this jackpot. Having been on the "other side of the show ring", as a participant myself, I am looking forward to meeting YOU...the participant and the Western Bonanza supporters!

As part of the Social Media and Publicity Committee, we would love to hear from you! I encourage you to keep up with our Western Bonanza Blog! Please send us your comments and don't forget, we're also on Facebook!

See you at the Bonanza!
