蘑菇视频网 (CWI) was proud to sponsor the and support the next generation of agricultural leaders. Local youth and teens took center stage in the CWI Show Ring, proudly showcasing the livestock they have been raising with care and dedication.
In addition to banners displayed around the Show Ring and the CWI Horticulture Trailer outside the building, Andrea Schumaker, Assistant Dean for Agricultural Sciences, and Tomas Puga, Community Admissions Coordinator and other CWI staff greeted fairgoers on Friday, July 25, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. They handed out sunglasses, stickers, fans, and more, and invited attendees to enter for a chance to win a $1,000 SCORE Big Scholarship.
The highlight of the afternoon came when Kennedy Kildow’s name was drawn for the scholarship. A proud member of Homedale FFA with five years of livestock showing experience. Kennedy’s favorite part of the Fair is connecting with friends and meeting new people. She plans to attend CWI to study nursing, then transfer to Lewis-Clark State College to earn her Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
“I’m incredibly honored to receive this scholarship,” said Kennedy. “I’ve always had a passion for caring for others, which started with agriculture and working with animals. Over time, that passion shifted toward wanting to help people, especially the most vulnerable. My ultimate dream is to become a NICU nurse where I can make a difference in the lives of newborns and their families. I chose CWI because it offers an excellent nursing program, allowing me to stay connected to my community, family, and friends.”
CWI staff presented Kennedy with the scholarship in the CWI Show Ring between livestock events on Friday afternoon, celebrating her future in front of family, friends, and fairgoers. CWI also awarded a branded windbreaker to Lacie King as part of the day’s giveaways.
CWI thanks everyone who stopped by and looks forward to returning to the Canyon County Fair in 2026.
As CWI continues to support students pursuing careers in agriculture and healthcare, exciting developments are underway. New, state-of-the-art buildings for both the Agricultural and Natural Sciences pathway and the Nursing and Health Science Pathway are currently in progress, providing hands-on, career-focused learning environments.
