Area fourth graders received a valuable lesson on how the food they eat gets to their tables Tuesday at Fonner Park. Nearly 800 students from 36 classrooms at 19 different schools from the Grand Island area gathered at Fonner Park in the Sheep Barn and the Five Point Livestock Arena for Ag Day. The event was sponsored by the Hall County Agricultural Committee. This was the 21st year that the Ag Day event has been held at Fonner Park. Ag Day provides students the opportunity to observe and interact with different aspects of agriculture, said Annette Schimmer, Ag Day chair.
