Jorden Thune from Barnesville, Minnesota is a member of the Barnesville FFA Chapter and the Humboldt 4-H Club. She’s been showing cattle this summer; a steer and aheifer. “I plan to show at the Minnesota State Fair if college lets me do that.” Thune will attend North Dakota State University in the fall, where she will pursue a degree in psychology. Thune cannot wait to participate in the Little International, learning how to improve in her showmanship before her final year of showing livestock. “The bond you have with your animal makes the greatest showman, because if you’re connecting with your animal, they’ll want to be with you. You become friends.” The Parade of Champions is brought to you by the Minnesota Corn Growers Association, the North Dakota Wheat Commission, Associated Milk Producers Incorporated and its Dinner Bell Creamery brand and Ag Country Farm Credit Services.
