August 16, 2022 -- Fluor-BWXT Portsmouth (FBP) is proud to support the hard work of Ross County Fair 4-H participants who spent their summer preparing their market projects.
Madalyn Edwards, daughter of Fluor-BWXT’s Jon Edwards, is part of the Bubblegum Gang 4-H Club in Ross County. She placed 4th in class for her market chicken showmanship, 3rd place in market chicken class and she earned three additional awards for other 4-H projects at the 2022 Ross County Fair.
This summer, FBP is expected to provide more than $17,000 in support of the local 4-H programs in Pike, Ross, Jackson and Scioto counties.
“These kids work hard all summer to prepare their animals and projects for their respective county fair,” said FBP Human Resources Manager, Todd Cron. “Congratulations to everyone who exhibited at our county fairs this week. This is a great opportunity and a valuable experience for our kids.”
Ross County had eight FBP 4-H kids receiving a total of $1,100 at auction.
