[Ag-eq] Moderator for 4-H County Dairy Quiz Bowl

Thanks Zack.
I can't wait to see how I did!

Tracy you should come up with a gardening quiz for us.  I think of you as our
list gardening expert.

 Maybe Susan could create a chicken quiz and Jewel could make a sheep or goat
quiz!

I could probably come up with a horse or goat quiz.
