October is Beef Month
Every year, the Franklin County Cattlemen’s Association participates in Cowboys in the Classroom during the month of October, a program where members of the association go to the local schools and read books related to agriculture to third grade students.
This year, the FCCA has partnered with Madeline Cooper, a graduate of Russellville High School, who has written a children’s book called “Just a girl and her cow.” The FCCA has purchased hardback copies of the book to give to local schools.
Cooper met with some of the FCCA board members and signed the books. The FCCA will be hosting a meet and greet for Cooper at the Russellville Public library Oct. 24 from 5-7 p.m. for anyone who would like to meet Cooper and learn more about her book.
